MCQ
For two statements are given $-$ one labelled Assertion $(A)$ and the other labelled Reason $(R).$ Select the correct answer to these questions from the codes $\ce{(a), (b), (c)}$ and $(d)$ as given below :
Assertion : Regeneration is getting a full organism back from its body parts.
Reason : Hydra and Planaria show regeneration.
  • A
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true, and $R$ is correct explanation of the assertion.
  • Both $A$ and $R$ are true, but $R$ is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
  • C
    $A$ is true, but $R$ is false.
  • D
    $A$ is false, but $R$ is true.

Answer

Correct option: B.
Both $A$ and $R$ are true, but $R$ is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
Regeneration is the process which involves repair of damaged cells/ tissue or replacement or redevelopment of broken body part or reconstruction of whole body from a small body fragment. The simple animals like Hydra and Pianaria show regeneration. It means if Hydra or Pianaria somehow get cut into a number of pieces, then each body piece can grow into a complete organism.
