    Neutralisation is acid and alkali cancel each other.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Neutralization occurs when an acid and an alkali react with each other, resulting in the formation of a salt and water. The acid donates a hydrogen ion (H+) to the alkali, which accepts it, forming water. This process cancels out the acidic and alkaline properties, leading to a neutral solution. Therefore, the given statement that "Neutralisation is acid and alkali cancel each other" is true.

    Cell membrane directs all the activities of the cell.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The cell membrane is responsible for regulating the movement of substances in and out of the cell, but it does not direct all the activities of the cell. The cell membrane acts as a boundary, protecting the cell and providing structural support, but the direction of cell activities is primarily controlled by the nucleus, which contains the cell's genetic material and controls the production of proteins. Therefore, the statement that the cell membrane directs all the activities of the cell is false.
