The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Text Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: The assertion states that "All the plants arise through tissue culture are somaclones." To evaluate this, we need to understand what somaclones are. Somaclones are plants that are genetically identical to the parent plant from which they are derived. 2. **Understanding the Reason**: The reason provided is that "All the plants arise through tissue culture are genetically identical." This statement is true because tissue culture techniques are designed to produce clones of the original plant, ensuring that the genetic material is the same. 3. **Linking Assertion and Reason**: Since the assertion claims that plants produced through tissue culture are somaclones, and the reason explains that these plants are genetically identical, we can see that the reason supports the assertion. 4. **Conclusion**: Both the assertion and the reason are true, and the reason correctly explains why the assertion is true. Therefore, the correct option is that both assertion and reason are true, and the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion. **Final Answer**: Both assertion and reason are true, and reason is a correct explanation of the assertion. ---
