While answering Assertion-Reason questions, always read both statements carefully and judge them separately. Check if the Assertion is true, and then see if the Reason is also correct on its own. If both are true, think whether the Reason logically explains the Assertion. But remember, if the Assertion is false, the Reason can’t be its explanation even if it is true. These questions test your concept clarity and logical thinking, so don’t just guess—a proper reading of the NCERT book is very important to answer them correctly.
