1(a)
Calculate the mean rate of water uptake at 30°C per cm² of leaf area. The capillary cross-sectional area was 0.50 mm² and total leaf area was 80 cm². Express the answer in mm³ min⁻¹ cm⁻².

1(b)
Explain the trend from 20°C to 35°C. Your answer must account for the fall between 30°C and 35°C.

[4 分]
1(d)
Design a follow-up experiment to test the effect of relative humidity independently of temperature. Include the independent variable, four controls, a reliability measure and a suitable display of results.

Question 2 — Inheritance, regulation and selection
20 分| Time after glucose drink / min | Person P / mmol L⁻¹ | Person Q / mmol L⁻¹ |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | 5.6 | 5.1 |
| 30 | 10.8 | 8.1 |
| 60 | 11.2 | 6.7 |
| 120 | 9.4 | 5.3 |
2(a)
A rare condition is caused by a recessive autosomal allele a. Two unaffected carrier parents plan a second child. Calculate the probability that the child is (i) affected and (ii) an unaffected carrier. If an existing child is known to be unaffected, find the probability that this child is a carrier.
[6 分]
2(b)
Compare the glucose responses of P and Q. Suggest a hormonal explanation and one further measurement that would distinguish reduced insulin secretion from reduced target-cell response.
[7 分]
2(c)
After an antibiotic was used, the resistant fraction of a bacterial population rose from 0.2% to 38%. Explain why it is incorrect to say that the antibiotic deliberately caused bacteria to make the useful mutation. Give one practice that slows this change and explain why.
