EXCRETORY PRODUCTS OF PLANTS
                  Most of the waste products
                   produced by plants are excreted
                   mainly by simple
                   diffusion through the stomata.


                  Nitrogenous wastes are mostly
                   converted into insoluble granules
                   which are kept within the plant
                   cells.


                  Waste products in the form of oil
                   droplets can be used to make
                   perfumes and aromatic oils.
