The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion (A)**: - The assertion states that many countries have banned the use of antibiotics in cattle feed. This is a factual statement reflecting a trend in agricultural practices aimed at addressing public health concerns. 2. **Understanding the Reason (R)**: - The reason provided states that dairymen give antibiotics in the feed to cattle, which creates breeding grounds for antibiotic-resistant bacteria. This highlights the consequence of using antibiotics in livestock, leading to the development of resistance. 3. **Analyzing the Link between A and R**: - The link between the assertion and the reason is that the use of antibiotics in cattle feed leads to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, which poses a risk to human health. This is a significant reason why many countries have chosen to ban antibiotics in cattle feed. 4. **Evaluating the Truth of Both Statements**: - Both the assertion and the reason are true. The assertion is a reflection of current regulatory practices, while the reason explains the rationale behind these practices. The use of antibiotics in cattle can indeed lead to antibiotic resistance, which is a growing concern in public health. 5. **Conclusion**: - Since both the assertion and the reason are true, and the reason provides a valid explanation for the assertion, we conclude that the correct answer is that both statements are true and the reason is an explanation for the assertion. ### Final Answer: Both the assertion and the reason are true, and the reason is the correct explanation for the assertion. ---

What could be the possible harm of using antibiotic resistant gene as a selectable marker in plasmid, used for gene transfer in production of GM food? (A) GM food contains the enzyme produced by the antibiotic resistance gene that was used during gene tranfer in genetic engineering. This could cause allergies since it is a foreign protein. (B) The bacteria present in the alimentary canal of the humans could take up the antibiotic resistance gene present in GM food. (C) The bacteria in the human alimentary canal would then become resistant to the concerned antibiotic. (D) The transgene may be transferred through pollen to their wild relatives and make weeds more persistant and damaging.
