Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
| Assertion (A): | FSH which interacts with membrane bound receptors does not enter the target cell. |
| Reason (R): | Binding of FSH to its receptors generates second messenger (cyclic AMP) for its biochemical and physiological responses. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |

Assertion (A): The hormones which interact with membrane bound receptors normally do not enter the target cell.
Reason (R): These hormones generate second messengers which in turn regulate the cellular metabolism.

2. Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is true but (R) is false.
4. Both (A) and (R) are false.
Reason (R): These hormones generate second messengers which in turn regulate the cellular metabolism.
