Question

Assertion :All birds, except the ones like Koel (Cuckoo), build nests for retiring and taking rest during night time(daytime for nocturnal birds) Reason: Koel lays its eggs in the nests of Tailor Bird

• A. Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
• B. Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
• C. Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect
• D. Both Assertion and Reason are incorrect

Answer 1

The correct option is C Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect

All birds, except the ones like Koel (Cuckoo), build nests for retiring and taking rest during night time(daytime for nocturnal) is a correct statement as cuckoos are brood parasites that do not make their own nests and instead lay their eggs in the nest of crows and not in those of tailorbird.

So, the correct answer is 'Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect'.
