I like to think of the DNA molecule strand as a ladder, rather than a spiral staircase. The siderail of the DNA ladder (The DNA "Backbone") consists of the Sugar and Phosphate molecules. The rungs of the ladder (the inner bases) consist of the pairs of Nitrogen Bases - Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and Thymine.

All plants are autotrophic.

Only bacteria are prokaryotic, rest all organisms are eukaryotic, including all the plants. Option 3 is true.

Plants are the only organisms which are autotrophic. Although apart from this mode of nutrition, plants can be parasitic or carnivorous as well. But primarily they all are autotrophic. Option 4 is true

Not all plants need sunlight, some get energy from the chemical substances from their surroundings. Option 5 is False.
