to every portion of the fluid and to the walls of its container.

Option: 1

A is correct but R is not correct
 


Option: 2

As per pascal’s law, when we apply pressure to an ideal liquid it is equally distributed in the entire liquid and
to the walls as well.
Since due to applied pressure, every morning, the tooth paste does not get compressed and we can safely
consider it on incompressible liquid.
Therefore both statements are true and R is correct explanation of A.
