Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.

Assertion A: All fairytales are fables.
Reason R: Fables can have animal characters.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

  • A.Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A.
  • B.Both A and R are correct but R is not the correct explanation of A.
  • C.A is correct but R is not correct.
  • D.A is not correct but R is correct.

Answer: D

The answer is A is not correct but R is correct.

The Assertion is false. A fable is a short story, usually with animals behaving like people, that teaches a moral, as in Aesop's fables or the Panchatantra. A fairytale is a story of magic, fairies, witches and enchanted kingdoms, which need not teach a moral. Some stories share features, but not all fairytales are fables.

The Reason is true: fables commonly have animal characters, such as the fox and the crow or the tortoise and the hare.
