Which of the following statements is/are INCORRECT? (i) The transport of insoluble product of photosynthesis is known as translocation. (ii) Respiration is the evaporative loss of water through stomata. (iii) Photosynthesis is the process by which autotrophs take in substances from outside and in the absence of sunlight convert them into stored forms of energy.
(i), (ii) and (iii)
Only (i) and (ii)
Only (ii) and (iii)
Only (i)
(i), (ii) and (iii)
All three given statements are scientifically incorrect. Translocation refers to the movement of soluble sugars (sucrose), transpiration is the loss of water vapor from stomata, and photosynthesis is a light-dependent process required to synthesize organic molecules.

Photosynthesis is like a solar-powered kitchen; without the solar energy (sunlight), the 'chefs' (chlorophyll) cannot cook the meal (glucose).
PTT: Photosynthesis (needs light), Transpiration (water loss), Translocation (sugar transport).

Plants transport organic nutrients via the phloem (translocation). Transpiration is the loss of water from leaves to facilitate cooling and nutrient uptake. Photosynthesis requires electromagnetic energy from sunlight (photons) to drive the endergonic reaction: 6CO2тАЛ+12H2тАЛOlightтАЛC6тАЛH12тАЛO6тАЛ+6O2тАЛ+6H2тАЛO.
Translocation involves soluble products like sucrose, not insoluble products.
Respiration is the metabolic process of breaking down glucose for energy; transpiration is the water loss process.
Photosynthesis is strictly light-dependent in autotrophs.

Statement (i) is incorrect because translocation transports soluble sugars (sucrose), not insoluble ones.
Statement (ii) is incorrect because the described process is 'transpiration', not 'respiration'.
Statement (iii) is incorrect because photosynthesis is a light-dependent process.
A is correct тАФ All three statements (i), (ii), and (iii) are scientifically inaccurate descriptions of plant physiological processes.
Always distinguish between respiration (gas exchange for energy) and transpiration (water loss) in biology exams; they are often swapped to test conceptual clarity.
