The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided, and determine their validity. ### Step 1: Analyze the Assertion The assertion states: "Polyps produce medusae sexually and medusae form the polyps asexually." - **Evaluation**: This statement is incorrect. Polyps reproduce asexually to produce medusae, not sexually. The typical process involves polyps undergoing budding or fission to create medusae. ### Step 2: Analyze the Reason The reason states: "Polyps and medusae are the common feature of different groups of cnidarians." - **Evaluation**: This statement is also incorrect. While polyps and medusae are indeed features of cnidarians, they are not merely common features of different groups but rather represent two different life stages of the same organism within the phylum Cnidaria. ### Step 3: Conclusion Since both the assertion and the reason are incorrect, we can conclude that neither statement is true. ### Final Answer Both the assertion and the reason are false.
