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 correct answer from the options given below:
| Assertion (A): | Growth, at a cellular level, is measured by a variety of parameters such as increase in fresh weight, dry weight, length, area, volume and cell number. |
| Reason (R): | Such parameters are more or less proportional to the increase in protoplasm which is primarily responsible for growth at cellular level. |
| 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). |
| 3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
