In plants waste materials may be stored in what form?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: In substances like gums and resins
Plants do not have specialised excretory organs like animal kidneys, so they use several methods to handle wastes. Some wastes are stored in forms such as gums and resins, especially in older tissues, and may later be removed when leaves or bark are shed. Therefore, option A is correct. Haemoglobin, muscles and the heart are animal structures and are not normal plant storage forms.
