A

both, Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.

B

both, Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.

C

Assertion is true but the Reason is false.

D

both, Assertion and Reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts
