Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The waste products of a plant are carbon dioxide, water vapour and oxygen. While carbon dioxide and water vapour are waste products of respiration, oxygen is a waste product of photosynthesis. These waste products are removed through stomata in leaves and lenticels in stems and are released into the air.

Detailed explanation-2: -Plants do require oxygen to respire, the process in return gives out carbon dioxide.

Detailed explanation-3: -Thus, the waste products of cellular respiration are carbon dioxide and water.

Detailed explanation-4: -Carbon dioxide and water are created as byproducts. The overall equation for aerobic cellular respiration is: In cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen react to form ATP. Water and carbon dioxide are released as byproducts.
