    A) If both the assertion and the reason are true and the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion

    B) If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion 

    C) If the assertion is true but the reason is false

    D) If both the assertion and reason are false

    E) If the assertion is false but reason is true

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Fertilized ovules ripen into seeds. The seeds are covered by fruits. A fruit is technically a ripened ovary. Gymnosperms contain ovules but they lack ovary, therefore, seeds are formed but fruits are not formed. Angiosperms contain both ovule and ovary and therefore, are seed bearing fruit forming plants.
