Answer 1

The correct option is A

Both assertion$\left(A\right)$ and reason$\left(R\right)$ are true, but reason$\left(R\right)$ is not the correct explanation for assertion.

Correct option: $\left(b\right)$Both assertion$\left(A\right)$ and reason$\left(R\right)$ are true, but reason$\left(R\right)$ is not the correct explanation for assertion.

$\bullet$ Reptiles are characterised by the presence of a three-chambered heart.

$\bullet$ Crocodiles belong to the class Reptilia but have a four-chambered heart.

$\bullet$ Their heart consists of two atria and two ventricles.

$\bullet$ So the correct option is $\left(b\right).$
