The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
Heterophylly is met within many aquatic plants, particularly in those growing in shallow running water. Here the floating or aerial leaves and the submerged leaves are of different kinds; the former is generally broad more or less fully expanded and undivided or merely lobed, while the latter is narrow, ribbon-shaped linear or much dissected, Examples are Sagittaria, Ranunculus aquatics, Limnophila heterophylla.

So the correct option is A.
