Pick the incorrect statement

1. Guard cells help balance the photosynthesis-transpiration compromise.

2. Water tension in a transpiring plant will exert a pull on water molecules lower down in the plant's vascular system.

3. Plants that live in deserts have adapted to constant water stress by using hydrophilic colloids to increase the water potential of their tissues.

4. C3 plants can fix double the carbon dioxide for half the water transpired.
