The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze the assertion and the reason provided: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: - The assertion states that "Chitinous exoskeleton is a characteristic feature of arthropods." - This is true. Arthropods, which include insects, arachnids, and crustaceans, have a chitinous exoskeleton that provides protection and structural support. 2. **Understanding the Reason**: - The reason states that "It allows diffusion of water vapor from atmosphere to the body." - This is false. The chitinous exoskeleton is a hard and impermeable structure that does not allow for the diffusion of water vapor or gases. Instead, it serves primarily as a protective barrier. 3. **Evaluating the Relationship**: - The assertion is true, but the reason is false. The reason does not correctly explain the assertion because the chitinous exoskeleton does not facilitate the diffusion of water vapor. 4. **Conclusion**: - Since the assertion is true and the reason is false, we conclude that the correct answer is (3): "Assertion is true statement but reason is false." ### Final Answer: (3) Assertion is true statement but reason is false. ---
