Which of the following is an incorrect statement?
(a) Organisms grow with time
(b) Organisms must repair and maintain their structure
(c) Movement of molecules does not take place among cells
(d) Energy is essential for life processes

Answers (1)

(c) The movement of molecules does not take place among cells.
Molecules move from one cell to another, for example, oxygen and food move from cell to cell for various biochemical processes. Hence option (c) is incorrect.

Molecular movements, imperceptible to the naked eye, underpin the fundamental processes essential to the sustenance of life. These encompass the displacement of molecules within and between cells, facilitating vital cellular functions. The cell's dynamic nature necessitates the constant acquisition and distribution of essential substances, which is achieved through active and passive transport mechanisms. Notable among these processes are osmosis and diffusion, which are instrumental in the movement of molecules such as water, crucial for stomatal regulation. Additionally, growth and repair processes are indispensable to maintain cellular integrity and life's perpetuation.

Hence, the correct option is c)Movement of molecules does not take place among cells
