Statement A : During the cold season lizards go into a long and deep sleep.
Statement B : Some animals go into a long, deep sleep in certain seasons.

Choose the correct answer from the following :

  • A.'A' is correct but 'B' is incorrect.
  • B.'A' is incorrect but 'B' is correct.
  • C.Both 'A' and 'B' are correct and 'B' explains 'A'.
  • D.Both 'A' and 'B' are correct but 'B' does not explain 'A'.

Answer: C

The answer is Both 'A' and 'B' are correct and 'B' explains 'A'.

Statement A is correct. Lizards are cold-blooded; when it is cold their bodies cannot stay active, so they hide in crevices and go into a long, deep sleep through the winter.

Statement B states the general fact: some animals go into a long, deep sleep in particular seasons (hibernation in winter, or aestivation in hot, dry seasons). Lizards' winter sleep is one example of this, so B is the general rule that explains the particular case in A.
