AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: The assertion states that a dope test is used to estimate the level of blood alcohol by analyzing the breath of persons drinking alcohol. - **Analysis**: This is incorrect. A dope test is primarily used to check for performance-enhancing drugs in athletes, not for measuring blood alcohol levels. 2. **Understanding the Reason**: The reason provided is that a drunken person usually feels tense and less talkative. - **Analysis**: This statement is also misleading. While alcohol can affect a person's mood and behavior, it does not universally make everyone feel tense and less talkative. In fact, many individuals may become more talkative or relaxed when intoxicated. 3. **Conclusion on the Assertion and Reason**: Since both the assertion and the reason are incorrect, we conclude that neither statement is true. - **Final Answer**: Both the assertion and the reason are false.
