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 : Hospital wastes like used syringes, urine bags, etc. can be incinerated.
Reason : Incineration burns the waste at very high temperature and converts it to ashes.
  • Both $A$ and $R$ are true, and $R$ is correct explanation of the assertion.
  • B
    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: A.
Both $A$ and $R$ are true, and $R$ is correct explanation of the assertion.
Hospital waste contains a lot of germs, so it should not be disposed openly. Burning the waste kills the germs and disposes the waste in proper way.
