Solution

The correct option is D Both Assertion and Reason are incorrect
Reproduction is the formation of new individuals of the similar kind. Reproduction is not essential for survival of the individuals. It is required for perpetuation of a population. Many organisms do not reproduce. e.g., mules, sterile worker bees, infertile human couples. Therefore, reproduction is not an all inclusive characteristic of living organism.
