The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Infertility**: - Infertility is defined as the inability to conceive or produce children after 2 years of unprotected sexual cohabitation. This means that if a couple has been trying to conceive without using any birth control methods for two years and has not succeeded, they are considered infertile. 2. **Understanding In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)**: - In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is a medical procedure where fertilization occurs outside of the female body. This involves taking an egg and sperm and allowing them to fertilize in a laboratory setting. 3. **Embryo Transfer**: - After fertilization, the resulting embryo is then transferred into the female's uterus. This process is commonly referred to as the "Test Tube Baby" program because the fertilization occurs in a test tube or a similar laboratory environment. 4. **Evaluating the Assertion and Reason**: - The assertion states that infertility is the inability to conceive after 2 years of unprotected sexual cohabitation, which is correct. - The reason states that IVF followed by embryo transfer is known as the "Test Tube Baby" program, which is also correct. - However, while both statements are true, the reason does not explain why the assertion is true. The assertion describes a condition (infertility), while the reason describes a method (IVF) that can be used to address that condition. 5. **Conclusion**: - Since both the assertion and reason are true, but the reason does not provide a proper explanation for the assertion, the correct answer is that both statements are true, but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion. **Final Answer**: Both assertion and reason are true, but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion (Option 2). ---
