Assertion-Reason Type Questions


Directions (Q. No. 1. to 5): The question below consists of an Assertion (A) and a Reason (R).

the correct explanation of A, (c) A is true but R is false, (d) A is false but R is true

Question 1
Assertion (A): Dew drops are formed on leaves of plants in early morning.
Reason (R): Warm air in the surrounding gets condensed on cooling.
Answer: (a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Question 2
Assertion (A): Ice-cream kept outside the refrigerator gets melted.
Reason (R): The process of melting involves cooling.
