Assertion : A gene may have several allelomorphs.
Reason : Wild form can mutate in more than one ways.

A

If both the assertion and the reason are true and the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion

B

If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion

C

If the assertion is true but the reason is false
