The correct Answer is:
To solve the assertion and reason question, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Analyze the Assertion The assertion states that "Green plants have two types of nutrition: (i) Organic nutrition (ii) Inorganic nutrition." - **Explanation**: Green plants indeed utilize both organic and inorganic nutrients. Organic nutrition refers to the nutrients that contain carbon and are derived from living organisms, while inorganic nutrition consists of minerals and elements like nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, etc., which are essential for plant growth. ### Step 2: Analyze the Reason The reason states that "Micronutrients are required in large quantities." - **Explanation**: This statement is incorrect. Micronutrients, such as manganese, copper, and zinc, are required by plants in very small quantities, unlike macronutrients (like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium) which are needed in larger amounts. ### Step 3: Determine the Relationship Now, we need to determine whether the assertion and reason are true or false. - The assertion is true because green plants do have two types of nutrition. - The reason is false because micronutrients are not required in large quantities; they are required in small amounts. ### Conclusion Based on the analysis: - The assertion is true. - The reason is false. Thus, the correct answer is that the assertion is correct, and the reason is incorrect. ### Final Answer The correct option is: Assertion is correct, and Reason is incorrect. ---
