a.
Most solar energy is NOT used in photosynthesis — only a small fraction of incoming solar energy is captured by producers. The other statements are essentially true: plants do both photosynthesis and cellular respiration, not all solar energy is used for photosynthesis, and much of the energy captured is eventually lost as heat.
