To solve the question regarding the Assertion and Reason statements, we will analyze each statement step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: - The assertion states: "Cyanobacteria is the new name for Myxophyceae or blue-green algae." - This statement is **true**. Cyanobacteria are indeed referred to as blue-green algae and belong to the group Myxophyceae. They are photosynthetic prokaryotes found in various aquatic environments. 2. **Understanding the Reason**: - The reason states: "Brown algae is the new name for Chlorophyceae." - This statement is **false**.
