(a)(A) is incorrect and (R) is correct.
(b)(A)is correct and (R) is incorrect.
(c)both(A)and(R) are correct but(R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
(d)both(A)and(R) are correct but (R) is the correct explanation of (A)​

Answer 1

(c) both(A)and(R) are correct but(R) is not the correct explanation of (A).

• This is because the reason doesn't give the answer as to why windmills are used.

• In big irrigation farms windmills are used because there is plenty of wind blowing all throughout the year.

• This energy can be harnessed to generate power to run motors.

• Also it is used because conventional methods of power generation may not be efficient for such a large farmland.

• The reason that Wind is a renewable source of energy is true.

• And so there is no pollution associated with it.

• But it doesn't trully explain why windmills are used.

• So (c) will be the most appropriate answer to the question!
