The correct answer is Option 1) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

Assertion A states that ATP is used in two steps in glycolysis, which is true.

Reason R provides the correct explanation for Assertion A. It states that the first ATP is used in converting glucose into glucose-6-phosphate, and the second ATP is used in the conversion of fructose-6-phosphate into fructose-1,6-diphosphate. This is an accurate description of the steps in glycolysis where ATP is utilized.

Therefore, both Assertion A and Reason R are true, and Reason R correctly explains Assertion A.
