Solution

The incorrect statement is D. Saprotrophic nutrition involves digestion inside the body. Saprotrophs, or saprophytes, are organisms that obtain their nutrients from dead and decaying organic matter. They do this by secreting digestive enzymes into the environment to break down the organic matter into simpler substances, which they then absorb. This process of digestion occurs outside their body, not inside. Therefore, statement D is incorrect.
