The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Assertion:** - The assertion states that "those genes which are present on 'Y' chromosomes of human beings are called holandric genes." - Holandric genes are indeed located on the Y chromosome. This is a true statement. 2. **Understanding the Reason:** - The reason states that "holandric genes are present both in men as well as women." - Holandric genes are specifically linked to the Y chromosome, which is only present in males (XY chromosome pair). Females have two X chromosomes (XX) and do not possess a Y chromosome. Therefore, this statement is false. 3. **Evaluating the Relationship:** - The assertion is correct because it accurately describes holandric genes as being located on the Y chromosome. - The reason is incorrect because it claims that these genes are present in both men and women, which is not true. 4. **Conclusion:** - Since the assertion is correct and the reason is incorrect, the correct option is: "Assertion is correct, reason is wrong."
