What do plants give off as a waste product during photosynthesis?
Oxygen
Oxygen is formed as the waste product. Some is used for respiration by the plant. The excess is released from the leaves, making it available for respiration to animals and many microorganisms. During the light, provided the rate of photosynthesis is sufficiently high, plants, give out oxygen.
What is the waste product of photosynthesis which is released into the air?
oxygen
Sunlight provides the energy needed for photosynthesis to take place. In this process carbon dioxide and water are converted into oxygen (a waste product that is released back into the air) and glucose (the source of energy for the plant).
What do plants release into the atmosphere at the end of photosynthesis?
Plants use photosynthesis to capture carbon dioxide and then release half of it into the atmosphere through respiration. Plants also release oxygen into the atmosphere through photosynthesis.
What is a plant waste product?
Plants need to excrete excess carbon dioxide and oxygen. Carbon dioxide is a waste product of aerobic respiration in plant cells. Oxygen is a waste product of photosynthesis .
How are waste products of photosynthesis removed?
Plants produce two gaseous waste products i.e. oxygen during photosynthesis and carbon dioxide during respiration. Excretion of gaseous waste in plants takes place through stomatal pores on leaves. Excess of water is also excreted from the plant body through the stomatal pores and from the surfaces of fruits and stems.
How do plants make waste?
What is product waste?
Waste-product meaning An unusable or unwanted substance or material produced during or as a result of a process, such as metabolism or manufacturing. noun.
What gases do plants give off?
During daylight hours, plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen through photosynthesis, and at night only about half that carbon is then released through respiration.
