Where does the carbon dioxide and water that are produced during plant respiration go?

The majority of the water is used to make a sugary food called glucose, that is used to feed the plant. The excess glucose is stored in the roots of the plant to provide the plant with nutrients in the spring. The excess water evaporates from small pores within the leaf. That is why greenhouses are often foggy. The small amount of excess carbon dioxide is stored within the plant and is released when the plant dies and decomposes.
