Trees / Bathroom  - A child once asked how a tree goes to the bathroom.  Not an easy answer.  Trees turn most of their products into substances that benefit the tree, such as extractives, crystals, and protection compounds.  Trees have indoor plumbing.  Living cells have vacuoles that collect products of metabolism. Animal cells do not have vacuoles.
