Solution

The correct option is C Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
Most platyhelminthes are parasites. Parasitic flatworms feed on blood, tissue fluids, or pieces of cells inside the bodies of their hosts. Therefore assertion is correct. Monopisthocotylea is a subclass of parasitic flatworms in the class Monogenea. Therefore reason is incorrect. Hence option C is correct answer.
