5. In the following question (Q.No.15-18), a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a
statement if reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
(a) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is correct explanation of assertion.
(b) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is not correct explanation of assertion.
(c) If assertion is true but reason is false.
