Answers (1)
Option 1) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
The assertion A states that a flower is defined as a modified shoot where the shoot apical meristem changes to floral meristem. This is true as flowers are indeed modified shoots.
The reason R explains that the internode of the shoot gets condensed to produce different floral appendages laterally at successive nodes instead of leaves. This is also true as floral appendages such as sepals, petals, stamens, and carpels are produced in place of leaves in the floral structure.
Therefore, both the assertion and the reason are true, and the reason correctly explains the assertion. Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.
