Solution

The correct option is A STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is True; STATEMENT-2 is a correct explanation for STATEMENT-1
Lysine, cysteine and threonine contains polar groups such as OH,NH2andCOOH.
These groups increase the solubility in water appreciably.
However such groups are not present in serine and valine.
Hence, they are slightly soluble.
