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 "Plant movements induced by external stimuli are known as autonomic movements." - This statement is incorrect. The correct term for plant movements induced by external stimuli is "paratonic movements" or "induced movements." Autonomic movements are those that occur without external stimuli. 2. **Understanding the Reason**: - The reason states that "Seismonastic movements are shown by crows." - This statement is also incorrect. Seismonastic movements are exhibited by certain plants, such as the Mimosa pudica (commonly known as the touch-me-not plant), not by animals like crows. 3. **Evaluating the Relationship**: - Since both the assertion and the reason are false, we conclude that neither statement is correct. 4. **Choosing the Correct Option**: - Based on our analysis, the correct option is that both the assertion and the reason are false. ### Final Answer: Both assertion and reason are false.
