Assertion : If Earth doesn't have atmosphere, than there will be very much cold.
Reason : In convection, heat transfers through air.

A

Both are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

Both are true but the reason is not 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

The correct Answer is:
C
Assertion is true as there will be no green house effect. So, there will be low temperature at night.
Convection is possible in fluids i.e. liquid and gases. Hence, reason is false.
