Solution

The correct option is B
Both assertion and reason are correct and the reason is the correct explanation for assertion.

Explanation for assertion statement:
Ziegler Natta Catalyst is a catalyst used to make high-density polymers.
Explanation for reason statement:
High-density polymers are prepared by monomer ethylene.
It is a kind of thermoplastic, closely packed in structure and inert in chemical reactivity.
Hence, the correct option is (B), both assertion and reason are correct and the reason is the correct explanation for assertion.
