To solve the question of identifying the incorrect statements, let's analyze each statement one by one: 1. **Statement (i)**: "Cell wall is the site of energy production in a plant cell." - **Analysis**: This statement is incorrect. The cell wall is a rigid structure that provides support and protection to the plant cell, but it is not involved in energy production. Energy production occurs in the mitochondria (in both plant and animal cells) and in chloroplasts (specifically in plant cells). - **Conclusion**: This statement is incorrect. 2. **Statement (ii)**: "Lysosomes are the reservoirs of starch, oil, and protein granules." - **Analysis**: This statement is also incorrect. Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles that contain digestive enzymes to break down waste materials and cellular debris. They are not reservoirs for starch, oil, or proteins; that function is typically associated with other organelles like plastids (for starch) and vacuoles (for storage). ...
