The correct Answer is:
To analyze the given question, we need to evaluate both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: - The assertion states that "Auxin was isolated by F.W. Went from the tips of coleoptiles of wheat seedlings." - This statement is **incorrect**. F.W. Went did isolate auxin, but it was from the tips of oat seedlings, not wheat seedlings. 2. **Understanding the Reason**: - The reason states that "Ethylene delays senescence." - This statement is also **incorrect**. Ethylene is known to promote senescence (aging) and abscission (the dropping of leaves and flowers), not delay it. 3. **Conclusion**: - Since both the assertion and the reason are false, the correct conclusion is that both statements are incorrect. 4. **Final Answer**: - Therefore, the answer to the question is that both the assertion and the reason are false, which corresponds to option number 4.
