Options
- ABoth Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is correct explanation of Assertion
- BBoth Assertion and Reason are true but the Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion
- CAssertion is true but the Reason is false
- DBoth Assertion and Reason are false
Correct answer
B. Both Assertion and Reason are true but the Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion
Step-by-step solution
The chemical and physical properties of amino acids are essentially of the amino, carboxyl and the R functional groups. Based on number of amino and carboxyl groups, there are acidic (e.g., glutamic acid), basic (lysine) and neutral (valine) amino acids.
