Identify two CORRECT statements from the following which are related to the ion transportation in the root system of plant
P. The proton pumps and H⁺-pyrophosphatase appear to work in anti-parallel with the vacuolar ATPase to create a proton gradient across the tonoplast
Q. Calcium is one of the important ion whose concentration is strongly regulated by the concentration of apoplastic spaces in the millimolar level
R. Solute move through both apoplast and symplast, and xylem parenchyma cells participate in xylem loading
S. The limitation of Nerst equation for relating the membrane potential to the distribution of ion at equilibrium is that it cannot distinguish between active and passive transport
