If a Bernoulli trial is conducted 
times, then Which one of the following is not suitable to use Poisson distribution?
(i) Each trial results in two mutually exclusive outcomes namely success, failure
(ii) The number ' 
' of such trials is sufficiently large.
(iii) The trails are independent of each other.
(iv) The probability 'p' of success in each trial is very large.

The statement that the probability ' 
' of success in each trial is very large. This is not suitable for using poisson distribution because the poisson distribution assumes rare events with small probabilities. ' 
' is very large, the binomial distribution is more appropriate to use instead.
