a) Assertion is correct and the reason is wrong
b) Reason is correct and the assertion is wrong
c) Both assertion and reason is correct
d) Both assertion and reason is wrong

Answer 1

Answer: Well the most rookie mistake that people make is this. They argue that if the assertion and the reason sound similar, the option must be A. In other words, the reason must be the correct explanation of the assertion. Let us first check the statements. The first statement presents a strong opinion or in other words, a blanket opinion. Such opinions are often not correct. For example, if someone says that all insects are small, the statement is incorrect. rather if you say insects are small, the statement is genuine.
