Solution

The correct option is C The Assertion is true but the Reason is false.
Biosphere reserves are multipurpose protected areas, which are meant for preserving genetic diversity in representative ecosystems of various natural biomes and unique biological communities by protecting wild populations, traditional lifestyle of tribals and domesticated plant / animal genetic resources. Multiple uses of the land is permitted by dividing it into zones, each for a particular activity.
These zones are-
(i) Core (no human activity is there), (ii) buffer (limited human activity is permitted), (iii) manipulation zone (several human activities can occur in this zone).
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
