The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the assertion and reason about earthworms, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Assertion**: The assertion states that in earthworms, a developmental larval stage is not found. This is indeed true. Earthworms, specifically the species Lumbricus terrestris (also known as Ferritima), do not undergo a larval stage in their development. 2. **Understand the Reason**: The reason provided is that "because in developmental larval stage is not found." This statement is somewhat redundant and does not provide a valid explanation for the assertion. It merely restates what is already claimed in the assertion. 3. **Evaluate the Truth of Assertion and Reason**: - The assertion is true: Earthworms do not have a larval stage; they develop directly from fertilized eggs into young worms. - The reason is false: It does not correctly explain why there is no larval stage; it simply repeats the assertion. 4. **Determine the Correct Option**: Since the assertion is true but the reason is false, the correct answer is (c) If Assertion is true, but Reason is false. ### Final Answer: (c) If Assertion is true, but Reason is false. ---
