Assertion (A): Chromatographic separation of leaf pigments shows that leaves has four different pigments. Reason (R): Pigments absorb light at specific wavelengths and help in the process of photosynthesis. The major leaf pigments are chlorophyll-a, chlorophyll-b, xanthophylls and carotenoids. The correct option among the following is:

(A) is true, (R) is true but (R) is not the correct explanation for (A)

(A) is true, (R) is true and (R) is the correct explanation for (A)

Assertion (A): When a green alga Cladophora is placed in a suspension of aerobic bacteria, on the illumination of different lights, only at the blue and red light bacteria accumulated. Reason (R): The bacteria release O 2 by the process of photosynthesis. The correct option among the following is:

(A) is true, (R) is true and (R) is the correct explanation for (A)

(A) is true, (R) is true but (R) is not the correct explanation for (A)
