The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we will analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: - The assertion states that "Amoeba is a type of sporozoan." - **Analysis**: Amoeba is not a sporozoan; it is classified as a protozoan, specifically an amoeboid organism. Therefore, this assertion is incorrect. 2. **Understanding the Reason**: - The reason states that "Sporozoans have two contractile vacuoles." - **Analysis**: Sporozoans, such as Plasmodium (the causative agent of malaria), do not possess contractile vacuoles. In fact, sporozoans typically lack these structures altogether. Hence, this reason is also incorrect. 3. **Conclusion**: - Since both the assertion and the reason are incorrect, we can conclude that neither statement is true. 4. **Identifying the Correct Option**: - Based on the analysis, we can evaluate the options: - Option A: Both assertion and reason are correct, and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion. (Incorrect) - Option B: Both assertion and reason are correct, but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion. (Incorrect) - Option C: Assertion is correct, and reason is wrong. (Incorrect) - Option D: Both assertion and reason are wrong. (Correct) Thus, the correct answer is **Option D**: Both assertion and reason are wrong.
