Solution

The correct option is D Both Assertion and Reason are incorrect
We cannot interchange the objective and eye lens of a microscope to make a telescope. The reason is that the focal length of lenses in microscope are very small, of the order of mm or a few cm and the distance between them is very small, while the telescope objective lens have a very large focal length as compared to eye lens of microscope.
