both assertion and reason are correct but R is not correct explanation of A

Answer 2

Both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

• Entomophily, often known as insect pollination, is a type of pollination in which insects transfer pollen from flowering plants.
• Bees are said to be the major contributors to insect pollination. According to some research, bees account for around 85 % of insect pollination. Hence, the given assertion is true.
• Flowers are brightly coloured to attract bees, who come to drink nectar from them. In the process, the bees transfer pollen from flower to flower, which benefits the plants too.
