Answer : A) Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

Explanation : In the presence of dissipative forces like air resistance which opposes the motion, any object will lose some part of its initial energy and consequently momentum too. Thus a projectile that traverses a parabolic path would certainly show deviation from its idealized trajectory in the presence of air resistance.
