The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: - The assertion states that "A nucleus was discovered by Robert Brown." - Robert Brown, a Scottish botanist, indeed discovered the nucleus while studying orchids. He observed a distinct area within the cell, which he termed the nucleus. 2. **Understanding the Reason**: - The reason states that "Large sized organisms have large sized cells." - This statement is misleading. While large organisms do have larger overall sizes, it is not necessarily true that their cells are larger in size. Instead, large organisms typically consist of a greater number of cells, which collectively contribute to their larger size. 3. **Evaluating the Assertion and Reason**: - The assertion is correct because Robert Brown did discover the nucleus. - The reason is incorrect because large organisms do not have larger cells; they have more cells of the same size. 4. **Conclusion**: - Based on the evaluation, the correct answer is that the assertion is correct, but the reason is incorrect. Therefore, the answer is option C: Assertion is correct and Reason is wrong.
