(a) Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of the assertion

Explanation

When a number of resistances are connected side by side (parallel) then their combined resistance (or, equivalent resistance) is less than the smallest individual resistance, in fact, less than each individual resistance.

Also, more current flows from the source than would flow for any of them individually, and so the total resistance is lower.
