While answering a question, you are required to choose the correct are out of the given four responses and mark it as (A). If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of the assertion, (B) if both assertion and reason are true but reason is not correct explanation of the assertion. (C) if asssertion is true, but reason if false, (D) if both assertion and reason are false Assertion : In electric circuits, wires carrying currents in opposite directions are often twisted together. Reason : If the wires are not twisted together, the combination of wires forms a current loop, the magnetic field generated by the loop, might affect adjecent circuits or components.
