Solution

The correct option is C

Through cellular vacuoles


  • Plants store waste in old leaves. When these leaves are shed, the waste is eliminated along with it.
  • They also store waste in old xylem or bark which are actually dead cells. The waste from this is excreted in the form of gums and resins.
  • Vaculoes of dead cells can be filled with waste materials.
  • Some amount of waste is also excreted into the soil through the roots.
