The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: The assertion states that "Euglenoids can perform photosynthesis." This is true because Euglena, a type of euglenoid, contains chlorophyll, which allows it to capture light energy and convert it into chemical energy through photosynthesis. 2. **Understanding the Reason**: The reason provided is "They have chloroplast in cytoplasm." This is also true. Euglenoids possess chloroplasts that contain chlorophyll, enabling them to perform photosynthesis. 3. **Analyzing the Relationship**: Now, we need to determine if the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion. Since the presence of chloroplasts in the cytoplasm is what enables Euglena to perform photosynthesis, the reason directly supports the assertion. 4. **Conclusion**: Both the assertion and the reason are true, and the reason is indeed a correct explanation of the assertion. Therefore, the correct answer is: "Both assertion and reason are true, and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion." **Final Answer**: Both assertion and reason are true, and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion. ---
