B. If both Assertion and Reason are true, but the Reason is not the correct explanation of the Assertion.
C. lf Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
D. If both Assertion and Reason are false.

Answer

To analyze the given assertion and reason, let's break it down step by step.

### Step 1: Understand the Assertion
- **Assertion**: "Epithelium cells get their nutrients from adjacent cells."
- **Explanation**: Epithelial tissues do not have a direct blood supply. They are avascular, meaning they lack blood vessels. Instead, they rely on the diffusion of nutrients from nearby connective tissues or adjacent cells.

### Step 2: Understand the Reason
- **Reason**: "In epithelium tissue, large intercellular spaces are present."
- **Explanation**: This statement is incorrect. Epithelial tissues are characterized by closely packed cells with minimal intercellular spaces. This lack of space is one reason why they do not have a blood supply; nutrients must diffuse from underlying tissues.

### Step 3: Evaluate the Truth of Each Statement
- The assertion is true: Epithelial cells do get their nutrients from adjacent cells.
- The reason is false: Epithelial tissues do not have large intercellular spaces; they have very little to none.

### Step 4: Conclusion
- Since the assertion is true and the reason is false, the correct relationship is that the assertion stands alone without support from the reason.

### Final Answer
The assertion is true, and the reason is false.
