Solution

The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
Arachidonic acid is a polyunsaturated fatty acid with 20 carbons and a formula of C20H32O2
Insulin and cholesterol will be obtained in acid soluble fraction during tissue analysis as they have a molecular weight of fewer than 10000 daltons molecules with weight greater than 10000 daltons are obtained in acid-insoluble fraction while the molecules with the lesser weight are obtained in an acid soluble pool or fraction during a tissue analysis.
So, the correct answer is 'Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.'
