Excretion in plants occurs through various means -
1. Excess water is removed through stomata by transpiration which is the process of removal or evaporation of water.
2. Plants also get rid of oxygen, a by - product in the process of photosynthesis and carbon dioxide which is the by - product formed during respiration. The plants get rid of these by stomata present in their leaves.
3. Some of the wastes stored in the leaves are removed by the detachment of the leaves itself from the tree.
4. Waste are also stored in the cellular vacuoles which do not affect the functioning of cytoplasm because of its outer membrane known as tonoplast.
5. Other waste products are stored in resins and gums, especially in old xylem which stops working thereby.
Now, you may think, that what if the xylem stops working? How will the transportation of water and minerals will occur all along the plant?
> The thing is that the plant have many xylem tissues for the transportation of water and old xylem tissues always get replaced by the new ones.
6. Terrestrial plants excrete some waste into the soil around them whereas aquatic plants remove the wastes by the process of diffusion.

Hii Friend Here is Your Answer,
》What is excretion?
The process in which unwanted and harmful substances are removed from the body of organisms is called Excretion.
》Do plants perform Excretion?
Yes, plants do excretion because they are also living organisms having Tissue performing various biochemical processes which realeases wastes which can be removed by Excretion.
》What are the Various modes of excretion in plants ?
The various ways in which plants perform excretion are :
1.Through Leaves Plants get rid of Excess water by the Process of Evaporation.
2.Leaves after using all its chlorophyll becomes a waste and gradually detach from the plant body.
3.During photosynthesis plant produce Oxygen as a waste through the stomata of leaves.
4.During Respiration the plant produces Carbondioxide gas as waste.
5.Excess of waste in plant body can block the functioning of the Xylem Tissue causing lack of transportation of water and minerals and ultimately the plant dies.
☆Terristerial plants Get rid of wastes in form of gases and Solids whereas Aquatic plants get rid by Diffusion of wastes in water.
