Solution

The correct option is C If Assertion is true but Reason is false.
Pethidine is a synthetic opioid analgesic of the phenylpiperidine class. Methadone is also an opioid medication.
Morphine is also an opioid pain medication. Pethidine and methadone are not structurally similar to morphine. Hydromorphone is structurally related to morphine.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
