In an experiment investigating the effects of factors which may limit photosynthesis, someleaves are exposed to two concentrations of atmospheric carbon dioxide. The photosyntheticrates of the leaves are measured at different temperatures. The results of the experiment are
shown in Figure 2.

The uptake of potassium ions by young cereal roots is measured over time at two temperatures,
0 oC and 25 C.Potassium cyanide (a respiratory inhibitor) is added after 90 minutes, at both
temperatures. The results are shown in Figure 3.

(ii) Apple growers in Japan sometimes make a non-lethal spiral slash around the bark oftrees destined for removal after the growing season. This practice makes the applessweeter.
With reference to the mass flow principle, explain the biological basis of this practicefor making the apples sweeter. [Note: details of mass flow hypothesis are NOTrequired.l [4 marksl
Mammalian neurones in a resting state normally have a membrane potential ofapproximately - 70 millivolts. If the plasma membrane is depolarized an action potential isgenerated.
