ASSERTION \& REASON
Directions: In the following questions, a statement of assertion is followed by a statement of reason.
Mark the correct choice as:
(1) Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are True and the Reason (R) is a correct explanation of the Assertion (A).
(2) Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are True but Reason \( (R) \) is not a correct explanation of the Assertion (A).
(3) Assertion (A) is True but the Reason (R) is False.
(4) Assertion (A) is False but the Reason (R) is True.
Assertion (A): When shoot apices modify themselves into flowering apices prior to flowering, they are able to perceive photoperiods.
Reason ( \( \mathbf{R}) \) : It has been hypothesized that there is a hormonal substance(s) that is responsible for flowering which migrates from leaves to shoot apices only in presence of inductive photoperiod.
