Assertion: Evolution is adaptation through generations. Reason: Only useful and continuous variations are inheritable.

Assertion: Mass selection is advantageous in self-pollinated plants. Reason: Self-pollinated plants retain the selected traits in the progeny as they are homozygous.

Assertion :- Non synchronised pollen release and stigma receptivity is of evolutionary significance. Reason :- It prevent self pollination and promote more genetic variability

Assertion : Mendel conducted artificial pollination experiments for his genetic studies using true-breeding pea lines Reason : A true-breeding line shows the stable trait inheritance and expression for several generations
