The correct Answer is:
To analyze the given assertion and reason, we will break down the concepts of modulation and demodulation, as well as the function of a repeater. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: - The assertion states that "the process of retrieval of information from the carrier wave at the receiver is termed as modulation." - Modulation is actually the process of superimposing a low-frequency message signal onto a high-frequency carrier wave. Therefore, the assertion is incorrect because the retrieval of information is not modulation; it is known as demodulation. 2. **Understanding the Reason**: - The reason states that "repeater helps to modulate the signals." - A repeater does not modulate signals. Instead, it receives a signal, amplifies it, and retransmits it. The primary function of a repeater is to extend the range of communication by boosting the signal, not to modulate it. 3. **Conclusion**: - Since both the assertion and the reason are incorrect, we conclude that both the assertion and the reason are false. ### Final Answer: Both the assertion and the reason are false. ---
