Locomotion does not occur in plants which require energy

Locomotion refers to the ability to move from one place to another, and plants, being sessile organisms, do not exhibit active movement like animals.

While plants can grow through cell division and enlargement, allowing them to increase in size, reproduce through various mechanisms, including sexual reproduction (seeds and spores) and asexual reproduction (vegetative propagation), and repair wounds to some extent, they do not engage in locomotion in the same way animals do.

Plants, however, are sessile organisms, meaning they are fixed in one place and do not have the capacity for active movement.

All the processes in the question requires energy, but the only one that does not occur in plants is the 1. Locomotion, since a plant do not move on its own.
