The correct Answer is:
To solve the assertion-reason question, we need to analyze both statements carefully. ### Step 1: Understand the Assertion The assertion states that "the animals which give birth to young ones are called oviparous." - **Explanation**: This statement is incorrect. Animals that give birth to live young are called **viviparous**. Oviparous animals are those that lay eggs. ### Step 2: Understand the Reason The reason states that "earthworms lay eggs and are unisexual." - **Explanation**: This statement is also incorrect. While it is true that earthworms lay eggs, they are not unisexual. Earthworms are **hermaphrodites**, meaning that each individual has both male and female reproductive organs. ### Step 3: Conclusion Since both the assertion and the reason are incorrect, we conclude that the answer to the assertion-reason question is that both statements are false. ### Final Answer Both the assertion and the reason are incorrect. ---
