All off the following are movements plants can accomplish except:

1 folding and unfolding of leaves
2 rapid responses using action potentials
3 growth movements up or down in response to gravity
4 growth movements toward or away from light
5 changes in plant growth in response to touch

I think it is 4 because of phototropism, am I correct
(doubts in 3 and 4)

Thank You

please don't take my word for it, but my gut reaction is actually 2.

I'm in biochemistry right now, and we covered a chapter on photosystems. all the other options see reasonable except 2. i don't see where there are action potentials in the plant. i suppose there are signaling pathways that would technique be an "action potential".. i really think it's 2
i know 4 is true based on my plant sitting in my window. the leaves turn so desperately to the sunlight.

2. rapid responses using action potentials

Action potentials transmit nerve impulse.
