1. mean=np=.5, so that's not it.

2. p(X=1)=C(10,1)(1/20)(19/20)^9 = 0.31512, so that's not it.

3. number of trials = n = 10, so that's not it.

5. std dev=sqrt(np(1-p))=.68920, so that's not it either.

That leaves statement 4 as the one that's not true.

Photosynthesis converts CO2 and H2O to glucose and oxygen. take a glance on the chemical equation for photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O ==> C6H12O6 + 6O2 all human beings understand that this technique is pushed by skill of utilising skill from hassle-free by skill of skill of a pigment in vegetation talked approximately as chlorophyll. O2 is a product, now no longer a reactant.

Probability is probability. You can compare probabilities BETWEEN but not WITHIN samples. Gotta be 4 - same for monomial distros, too.
