Assertion (A): In the process of drying dishes with a towel, the wetting agent is the dish and the drying agent is the towel.
Reason (R ): The wetting agent gets wet during the process.

Options

A. If both `(A)` and `(R )` are correct and `(R )` is the correct explanation of `(A)`.
B. If both `(A)` and `(R )` are correct but `(R )` is not the correct explanation of `(A)`.
C. If `(A)` is correct but `(R )` is incorrect.
D. If `(A)` and `(R )` are incorrect.

Explanation

To analyze the assertion and reason provided in the question, we can break down the concepts step by step.

### Step 1: Understanding the Assertion
The assertion states that in the process of drying dishes with a towel, the wetting agent is the dish, and the drying agent is the towel.

- **Wetting Agent**: This is the object that is wet or has moisture on it. In this case, it is the dish, which is wet.
- **Drying Agent**: This is the object that absorbs the moisture. Here, it is the towel, which is dry and absorbs the water from the dish.

### Step 2: Understanding the Reason
The reason states that the wetting agent gets wet during the process.

- This implies that the dish (the wetting agent) becomes even wetter as it interacts with the towel. However, this is not accurate because the towel is absorbing the moisture from the dish, making the dish drier.

### Step 3: Evaluating the Assertion and Reason
- The assertion is correct because the dish is indeed the wetting agent and the towel is the drying agent.
- The reason is incorrect because the wetting agent (the dish) does not get wetter; instead, it becomes drier as the towel absorbs the moisture.

### Conclusion
Based on the evaluation:
- Assertion (A) is correct.
- Reason (R) is incorrect.

Thus, the correct answer is that the assertion is true, but the reason is false.

### Final Answer
Assertion is correct and Reason is incorrect.
