Plants need carbon dioxide and water in the presence of light to produce sugar which serves as food for the plant, as byproduct of is oxygen; the process is to be known as photosynthesis.
In respiration, plants (and animals) convert the sugars back into energy for growth and to energize life processes (metabolic processes). The chemical equation for respiration shows that the sugars from photosynthesis are combined with oxygen. Notice that the equation for respiration is the opposite of photosynthesis.
C6H12O6 + 6O2 ----)6CO2 + 6H20 + energy
and
Transpiration – the loss of water vapor through the stomata of leaves.

YES It's called OXYGEN. They excrete OXYGEN. This was something we learned in 4th grade. PHOTOSYNTHESIS is what it is called. Plants take in air, using the CO2 for energy and excrete O2.

Oxygen isn t a "material" to most people. im sure what op meant was the same as what im wondering, and thats if plants Store or somehow get rid of the things they soak up which they dont need. Animals eat things then can just poop them out if they cant digest them, what do plants do with the things they dont need? Attach them to oxygen and secrete them? Store them somehow?

Let me answer your question by reminding you that "all living things respire" therefore plant being a living thing gives out waste in the form of oxygen during food processing-taking in carbon II oxide (co2) and giving out oxygen.

Plants are also living organisms that means waste materials are formed in their bodies,but plants have unique gift of nature of reutilise the waste formed in the body as they do not have organs like in animals,some of them are stored in the body for their own defence, in the form of crystals or liquids called alkaloids.

Plants waste material is oygen. Remember plants take in CO2 and let oxygen . Plants make their own food and they make sufficient so they do not waste it, unlike animals they do not produce their own food, they search for it.

It's called photo-synthesis and you breathe it in as Oxygen
I love plants. They keep us alive

yes they do, it's called oxygen, it comes from respiration, and photosythesis, they don't need it, we do, maybe we should hug tree's, don't ya think ?
