Solution
The correct option is C Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect The resistance of galvanometer is fixed. In metre bridge experiment, to protect is fixed. In metre bridge experiments, to protect the galvanometer from a high current, high resistance is connected to the galvanometer in order to prodect if from damage.
