Solution

The correct option is C Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is correct explanation of the assertion
Young's Modulus= (restoring force per unit area)/(elongation of wire/length of wire)
now for a plastic body the restoring force is zero and it ultimately makes the Young's modulus zero.
hence both assertion and reason are true
