The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step 1: Understand the Assertion The assertion states that "Gravitational water is that which reaches the water table of the earth." - Gravitational water refers to the water that moves through the soil and reaches the water table due to the force of gravity. This statement is true. ### Step 2: Understand the Reason The reason states that "Movements under the effect of gravity are called geotropic movements." - Geotropic movements refer to the directional growth or movement of organisms in response to gravity. This statement is also true. ### Step 3: Analyze the Relationship Now, we need to determine if the reason correctly explains the assertion. - While both statements are true, the reason does not provide a correct explanation for the assertion. Gravitational water is a physical phenomenon related to water movement, while geotropic movements pertain to the behavior of living organisms in response to gravity. ### Conclusion Both the assertion and the reason are true, but the reason does not explain the assertion. Therefore, the answer to the question is that the assertion is correct, the reason is correct, but the reason is not the correct explanation for the assertion. ### Final Answer The answer is: Assertion is true, Reason is true, but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion. ---
