Solution

Excretion :
Plants do not have any special organs for waste removal.
Most of the waste like oxygen, carbon dioxide and water vapor that is produced by photosynthesis and respiration are removed through stomata in leaves and lenticels in stem.
Shedding of leaves and barks are another method of waste removal in plants.
Wastes are also removed by resins, gum, and rubber.
