Solution

Explanation :
Phagocytosis is the process of engulfment of pathogens and other foreign substances by the white blood cells.
Explanation for the other words:
Transpiration is the loss of water through the stomata, cuticles, or lenticels of the plant.
Photosynthesis is the process of manufacturing food by plants.
Guttation is the loss of water as droplets from hydathodes.
All three processes-transpiration, guttation, and photosynthesis require water.
Hence, the odd one out is phagocytosis and the others belong to processes that occur in plants and require water.
