The assertion is true, but the reason is false.
Both the assertion and reason are false.
Answers (1)
The assertion states that genetically modified (GM) plants are more useful than normal plants. This assertion is subjective and lacks specific criteria or context to determine the extent of their overall utility. While GM plants can offer various benefits such as increased yield, pest resistance, or improved nutritional content, the assertion does not provide sufficient evidence or criteria to support its claim.
The reason states that Golden rice is a variety of rice that is notably abundant in beta-carotene. This is true as Golden rice is genetically modified to produce higher levels of beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A. However, the reason does not directly explain or support the broader assertion that GM plants are more useful than normal plants.
Therefore, while both the assertion and reason are true, the reason does not provide an appropriate explanation for the assertion. Hence, Option 2 is the correct answer.
