The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: - The assertion states that in Ascomycetes and Basidiomycetes, a well-distinct dikaryophase is present during their sexual life cycle. - This is true because in these fungi, after the process of plasmogamy (fusion of cytoplasm), there is a phase where two distinct nuclei coexist in the same cell, known as the dikaryophase. 2. **Understanding the Reason**: - The reason states that during sexual reproduction of Ascomycetes and Basidiomycetes, plasmogamy is immediately followed by karyogamy (fusion of nuclei). - This statement is false. In fact, there is a delay between plasmogamy and karyogamy, during which the dikaryophase occurs. 3. **Evaluating the Relationship**: - Since the assertion is true and the reason is false, we can conclude that the reason does not correctly explain the assertion. 4. **Choosing the Correct Option**: - Based on the analysis, the correct answer is that the assertion is true and the reason is false. ### Final Answer: The correct option is: **Assertion is true and Reason is false.**
