Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Waste product of photosynthesis
A
Oxygen
B
Carbon dioxide
C
Water
D
Nitrogen
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Six oxygen molecule is released as a waste product. This oxygen is produced due to splitting of water by the process of photolysis during light reaction. So, the correct answer is option ‘Oxygen’.

Detailed explanation-2: -Carbon dioxide is a waste product of aerobic respiration in plant cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -The waste product of photosynthesis is oxygen gas, O2. This benefits plants, as they use carbon dioxide as a source of carbon and oxygen to create glucose.

Detailed explanation-4: -Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose. Glucose is used as food by the plant and oxygen is a by-product. Cellular respiration converts oxygen and glucose into water and carbon dioxide. Water and carbon dioxide are by-products and ATP is energy that is transformed from the process.

Detailed explanation-5: -Because plants don’t use oxygen, they release it as a waste product through the same pores they used to take in carbon dioxide. This is very helpful for humans and other animals who breathe the oxygen that plants release into the atmosphere.
