**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Statement (i): A gamete carries only one factor of a character.** - According to Mendelian genetics, gametes are haploid cells that carry only one allele (factor) for each gene. This is true because during meiosis, the alleles segregate so that each gamete receives only one allele from each pair. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **True**. 2. **Statement (ii): Starch synthesis in wrinkled seeded pea plants is most efficient.** - In pea plants, the round seed shape is dominant over the wrinkled seed shape. Round seeds are associated with efficient starch synthesis, while wrinkled seeds, which are recessive, have less efficient starch synthesis due to the absence of certain enzymes necessary for starch production. ...
