Solution

The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
Stomata of plants open and close in response to turgor pressure. This pressure is mainly because of the fluids inside the cells.
The amount of H+ ions present inside and outside the cell greatly affects its pH. Hence, influx and outflux of H+ ions affect the pH of the cell.
Hence, both the assertion and the reason are correct but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
So, the correct answer is 'Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion'.
