Ionic solids do not conduct electricity in the solid state; they conduct when melted or dissolved in water.

Decay is not a characteristic of life; it is a process that occurs after death.

Inertia is not a characteristic of living organisms; they exhibit growth, reproduction, and movement.

Polymers typically have low solubility in water, especially synthetic ones.

R-selected species are characterized by high fecundity and short lifespans, not long gestation periods.

Echinodermata do not possess a notochord; this feature is characteristic of Chordata.

Phylum Mollusca is characterized by soft bodies, often with a shell, and a mantle, but they do not have jointed legs.

Porifera, or sponges, lack true tissues, which distinguishes them from other multicellular organisms.

The plant kingdom is characterized by eukaryotic cells, autotrophic nutrition, and the presence of chlorophyll. Heterotrophic nutrition is not a characteristic of plants.

Ribose is not a component of DNA; it is found in RNA. DNA contains deoxyribose.

The cell theory states that all living things are composed of cells, cells are the basic unit of life, and all cells arise from pre-existing cells. Spontaneous generation is not part of the cell theory.

Uniformity of traits is not a condition for natural selection; rather, variation in traits is essential for natural selection to act upon.

Kilogram is a fundamental unit, while Newton, Joule, and Pascal are derived units.

Fungi is not a domain; it is a kingdom within the domain Eukarya.

Viruses are not classified as a domain of life.

Environmental Stability does not lead to evolution; rather, it is the changes in the environment that drive evolutionary processes.

Protista do not have a cell wall made of chitin; this is characteristic of fungi.

Magnetic field is not a form of energy; it is a field that exerts a force on charged particles.

While blood plays many roles, it does not produce hormones; hormones are produced by glands in the endocrine system.

Secretion is primarily a function of epithelial tissue, not connective tissue.

Cytokinins do not promote apical dominance; rather, they promote lateral bud growth.

Iron is not directly involved in cell wall formation; it primarily functions in chlorophyll synthesis and electron transport.

Inactivity is not a function of living organisms; they are characterized by metabolic activity.

Magnesium is not directly involved in water transport; it primarily aids in chlorophyll formation and enzyme activation.

While nitrogen is essential for protein synthesis, nucleic acids, and chlorophyll production, it does not directly participate in the photosynthesis process.

Stems primarily support the plant, transport nutrients and water, but do not absorb water; this is the function of roots.

The cell membrane does not produce energy; it primarily functions in transport, communication, and acting as a barrier.

Photosynthesis is not a function of the endoplasmic reticulum; it occurs in chloroplasts.

The liver does not directly digest proteins; it produces bile and performs other functions.

The liver does not directly digest carbohydrates; it plays roles in detoxification, bile production, and protein synthesis.
