Question

How does a cell get rid of waste products such as carbon dioxide?

1) The waste leaves through the cell membrane.


2) The waste is transported to the nucleus.


3) The waste is stored in a lysosome.


4) The waste is converted into ATP .

Answer 1

The correct answer is option 1) "The waste leaves through the cell membrane".

Step-by-step explanation:

Most cellular reactions leave unwanted products or byproducts that cells need to get rid of. In order to so, the cell uses membrane transportation methods that allows the movement of useful material inside and the disposal of waste products to the outside. One example is carbon dioxide, which passes through the cell membrane down to its concentration gradient by simple diffusion.

Answer 2

Answer: 1.

Explanation: Cells get rid of the products like carbon dioxide out of the cells by the process known as cellular respiration. The process of cellular respiration can be defined as the process by which the animals convert the energy into usable form and release the waste products such as carbon dioxide and water.
