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 : Seeds are matured ovules.
Reason : The part of seed which contains stored food for baby plant is called cotyledon.
  • 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.
Ovule is gradually converted into a seed. A seed is the reproductive unit of a plant. The seed contains a baby plant $($or embryo$)$ and food for the baby plant. The part of baby plant in seed which develops into shoot with leaves is called plumule and the part which develops into root is called radicle. The part of seed which contains stored food for the baby plant is called cotyledon.
