The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the assertion and reason provided, we will analyze both statements step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the Assertion The assertion states: "A cell with an actively dividing nucleus is called an interphase cell." - **Explanation**: Interphase is the phase of the cell cycle where the cell is not actively dividing. Instead, it is preparing for division by duplicating its DNA and organelles. Therefore, a cell with an actively dividing nucleus would not be classified as an interphase cell but rather as being in the process of mitosis or meiosis. ### Step 2: Analyze the Reason The reason states: "Prokaryotic cells have a true nucleus." - **Explanation**: Prokaryotic cells are characterized by the absence of a true nucleus. Instead, they have a nucleoid region where their genetic material is located, but it is not enclosed by a nuclear membrane. In contrast, eukaryotic cells have a true nucleus that is membrane-bound. ### Step 3: Conclusion Both the assertion and the reason are incorrect. The assertion mislabels interphase cells, and the reason incorrectly describes prokaryotic cells. ### Final Answer Both the assertion and the reason are false. ---
