The following statement about communication satellites is correct except:

  1. They facilitate global telecommunications.
  2. They can only transmit data in one direction. ✓
  3. They are used for broadcasting television signals.
  4. They help in internet connectivity.
Explanation

Communication satellites receive signals from Earth and send them back to other places. This works in both directions, which makes calls and video chats possible.

So they can only transmit data in one direction is the false statement. The others are true: they help global telecoms, TV broadcasting and internet access.
