Solution
The correct option is D The Assertion is false but the Reason is true. IUCN (International Union of Conservation of Nature) maintains a 'Red Data Book' or 'Red List', which is a catalogue of plants and animals facing the risk of extinction; that means the species that are endangered. Endangered species need to be identified because only after that the planning for their protection and stabilizing their population can be given a proper direction.
