Assertion :Distinct seasons and annual variation in precipitation leads to formation of major biomes. Reason: Distinct seasons and annual variations in precipitation leads to development of different climatic conditions which favours growth and development differentially.

• 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

• Distinct seasons and annual variation in precipitation leads to the formation of major biomes because distinct seasons and annual variations in precipitation leads to the development of different climatic conditions which favors growth and development differentially.
  
• So, the correct answer is 'Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion'.
