Assertion (A) : Hyperplasia and hypertrophy causes abnormal growth of affected organs of the plant.
Reason (R) : It is due to high number of cell caused by hypertrophy while hyperplasia increases size of the cell
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
Analyzing Assertion (A): Plant Organ Growth
Assertion (A) states that hyperplasia and hypertrophy cause abnormal growth of affected plant organs.
- Hypertrophy refers to the increase in the size of cells.
- Hyperplasia refers to the increase in the number of cells, typically through cell division.
- When these processes occur abnormally, they lead to an increase in the size of the organ, resulting in abnormal growth.
Therefore, Assertion (A) is factually correct.
Evaluating Reason (R): Cause of Abnormal Growth
Reason (R) claims that abnormal growth is due to a high number of cells caused by hypertrophy, while hyperplasia increases cell size.
- This statement incorrectly attributes the increase in cell number to hypertrophy. Hypertrophy actually increases cell size.
- Hyperplasia is the process that increases the number of cells.
Due to this factual inaccuracy regarding the roles of hypertrophy and hyperplasia, Reason (R) is incorrect.
Conclusion on Assertion and Reason
Since Assertion (A) is correct and Reason (R) is incorrect, the appropriate choice is that (A) is correct but (R) is not correct.
The correct option is 3: (A) is correct but (R) is not correct.
