Solution

The correct option is D Statement 1 is false and Statement 2 is true.
The number 0 (zero) and all the natural numbers put together form the set of whole numbers. Thus, every natural number is a whole number. But note that 0 is a whole number, and not a natural number and thus, statement 1 is false.
