Which of the following statements are correct regarding the general difference between cell and nuclear membranes? 1. A cell membrane occurs in both Eukaryotes and Prokaryotes while a Nuclear membrane occurs only in Eukaryotes.  2. Both cell membrane and nuclear membrane persists throughout the lifetime of a cell. 3.

With reference to the movement of molecules of fluid in plant, consider the following statements.
1. Diffusion is the movement of molecules of a substance from the region of their higher concentration to the region of their lower concentration.
2. Osmosis is a process in which the water molecules move through a semipermeable membrane from the region of their lower concentration to the region of their higher concentration.
Which of the statement(s) given above is/are correct ?
The process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from less concentrated solution into a more concentrated one is called:
Assertion (A) In osmosis, solvent molecules pass through a semipermeable membrane from a more dilute solution to a more concentrated one, when these two are separated by the semi-permeable membrane.
Reason (R) The vapour pressure of the solvent over the dilute solution is less than that over the concentrated solution.
The process of diffusion of one liquid into the other through a semi permeable membrane is called

A large tank of height h is half-filled with a liquid of density ρ and other half-filled with a liquid of density 4ρ. A similar tank is half-filled with a liquid of density 2ρ and other-half filled with another liquid of density 3ρ as shown. What will be the ratio of the instantaneous velocities of discharge through a small opening at the base of the tanks? (assume that the diameter of the opening is negligible compared to the height of the liquid column in either of the tanks)
Statement 1: Diffusion of gas component through the resistive film to the bulk of the liquid is the rate determining step. Statement 2: Diffusion of gas component through the gas-liquid inter-phase is the rate determining step.
In a gas mixture of hydrogen and oxygen, steady state equimolar counter diffusion is occurring at a total pressure of 100 kPa and temperature of 20°C. If the partial pressures of oxygen at two planes 0.01 m apart, and perpendicular to the direction of diffusion are 15 kPa and 5 kPa, respectively and the mass diffusion flux of oxygen in the mixture is 1.6 * 10–5 kmol/m2.sec, calculate the molecular diffusivity for the system. For equimolar counter current diffusion:
