Detailed explanation-1: -Carbon dioxide is a waste product of aerobic respiration in plant cells.
Detailed explanation-2: -Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide and water to assemble carbohydrate molecules and release oxygen as a waste product into the atmosphere.
Detailed explanation-3: -Some of the oxygen produced in the process of photosynthesis is used in respiration by the leaf cells but the major portion of it is not required and it diffuses out into the atmosphere through the stomata. Therefore, it may be called a waste product of photosynthesis.
Detailed explanation-4: -Carbon dioxide, excess water produced during respiration and nitrogenous compounds produced during protein metabolism are the major excretory products in plants. Plants produce two gaseous waste products i.e. oxygen during photosynthesis and carbon dioxide during respiration.
