Assertion : Transpiration occurs through stomata
Reason : Guttation is due to root pressure

Options

A. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
B. Both A and R are true but Ris not correct explanation of A
C. A is true but R is false
D. A and R are false

Answer

To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided.

### Step-by-Step Solution:

1. **Understanding the Assertion**:
- The assertion states that "Transpiration occurs through stomata."
- Transpiration is the process where water vapor is lost from the plant to the atmosphere, primarily occurring through small openings called stomata, which are mainly located on the leaves.
- Therefore, this assertion is **True**.

2. **Understanding the Reason**:
- The reason states that "Guttation is due to root pressure."
- Guttation is the process where water droplets are exuded from the tips or edges of leaves, typically occurring at night when transpiration is low, and root pressure builds up.
- This process is indeed caused by root pressure, which pushes water up through the plant and out through specialized structures called hydathodes.
- Thus, this reason is also **True**.

3. **Evaluating the Relationship**:
- Now we need to determine if the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
- While both statements are true, the reason (guttation due to root pressure) does not explain how transpiration occurs through stomata. Transpiration and guttation are two different processes.
- Therefore, the reason is **not the correct explanation** for the assertion.

4. **Conclusion**:
- Both the assertion and the reason are true, but the reason does not correctly explain the assertion.
- The correct answer is **Option B**: Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is not the correct explanation of the Assertion.
