The Assertion is incorrect because tranquillizers (antidepressants) do not work by increasing the production of neurotransmitters in the brain. Instead, they work by blocking the reuptake of neurotransmitters in the brain, which can help to increase their levels and improve mood. Therefore, Reasoning is not the correct explanation for the Assertion.
