Solution

The correct option is C Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
A person who has received a cut and is bleeding needs to be given anti-tetanus treatment because the bacteria Tetanus bacilli can get access to enter body and produce toxin that cause tetanus. Hence assertion is correct.
Anti-tetanus injection provides passive immunity. The toxins produced from the Tetanus bacilli are detoxicated and are used in the preparation of vaccines. Hence reason is incorrect.
So, the correct answer is 'Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect'.
