The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion (A)**: - The assertion states that "Sense organs do not interpret the stimulus; it is done by the brain." - This means that while sense organs can detect stimuli (like light, sound, temperature), they do not process or make sense of these stimuli. That function is reserved for the brain. 2. **Understanding the Reason (R)**: - The reason states that "Sense organs are transducers." - A transducer is a device that converts one form of energy into another. In this context, sense organs convert the energy of a stimulus (like light or sound waves) into nerve impulses (electrical signals) that can be interpreted by the brain. 3. **Analyzing the Relationship**: - The assertion is true because sense organs only detect stimuli and send signals to the brain. - The reason is also true because sense organs indeed function as transducers, converting various forms of energy into nerve impulses. - Moreover, the reason provides a correct explanation for the assertion: since sense organs are transducers, they cannot interpret stimuli themselves; this interpretation is done by the brain. 4. **Conclusion**: - Both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason correctly explains the assertion. Therefore, the correct option is that both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason is the correct explanation for the assertion. ### Final Answer: - Both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason is the correct explanation for the assertion.
