Read the following two statements, Assertion (A) and Reason (R) and indicate your answer using the codes given below :

Assertion (A) : Many amputees experience phantom limb syndrome where in they continue to feel their missing limbs after surgery.
Reason (R) : The image of one's body's boundaries continue to function even after parts of the body are removed.
Codes :

  • A.Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
  • B.Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
  • C.(A) is true, but (R) is false.
  • D.(A) is false, but (R) is true.

Answer: A

Both statements are true and R explains A. Many amputees feel their missing limb after surgery, which is phantom limb syndrome.

The reason says the internal image of the body's boundaries continues to function after parts are removed, so the brain's body representation still signals the limb. That is the accepted explanation, so R accounts for A, and the options that deny the link or call a statement false are wrong.
