1. Statement I is correct; Statement II is correct
2. Statement I is correct; Statement II is incorrect
3. Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is incorrect

Consider the given two statements:
Assertion (A): In xenogamy, pollen is transferred from the anther of one plant to the stigma of another plant of a different species.
Reason (R): Xenogamy results in genetic variation as it involves the fusion of gametes from different individuals.
 
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.
4. (A) is False but (R) is True.
