Solution
The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
Sugar beet, cabbage, carrot like plants are monocarpic because they flower, set seeds and then die. Vernalisation and photoperiodism are related to flowering. Photoperiodism is a phenomenon of dependence of flowering on relative period of light and darkness. Vernalisation is defined as the acquisition or acceleration of the ability to flower by a chilling treatment. The juvenile or vegetative phase is shortened to increase the ability of flowering by cold treatment. Both assertion and reason are correct but reason is not the correct explanation for assertion.
So, the correct answer is option B.
