The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the assertion and reason about patients with pacemakers undergoing MRI, we will analyze both statements step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion (A)**: - The assertion states: "While undergoing MRI, patients having pacemaker should take some care." - MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed images of the organs and tissues inside the body. - Patients with pacemakers need to be cautious because the strong magnetic fields can interfere with the functioning of the pacemaker. 2. **Evaluating the Reason (R)**: - The reason states: "MRI does not affect pacemaker." - This statement is misleading. In reality, MRI can potentially affect the functioning of a pacemaker. The magnetic fields can cause the pacemaker to malfunction or even be damaged. 3. **Conclusion on Assertion and Reason**: - The assertion (A) is true because patients with pacemakers must take precautions during an MRI. - The reason (R) is false because MRI can indeed affect pacemakers. 4. **Determining the Correct Option**: - Based on the evaluation, we find that: - A is true (patients with pacemakers should take care during MRI). - R is false (MRI does affect pacemakers). - Therefore, the correct option is C: "If A is true and R is false." ### Final Answer: The correct option is C: "A is true and R is false."
