Read the Assertion (A) and Reason (R) carefully.

(A) : The history of many places show us how many different cultural influences have helped to shape life and culture there.
(R) : Thus regions became very diverse because of their unique history for example Laddakh and Kerala.

Choose the correct option from the following.

  • A.Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) does not explain (A).
  • B.(A) is true but (R) is false.
  • C.(A) is false but (R) is true.
  • D.Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) explains (A).

Answer: D

Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) explains (A).

The assertion says the history of many places shows how different cultural influences shaped life and culture there. The reason draws the consequence and gives examples: regions such as Ladakh and Kerala became very diverse because of their unique histories. Ladakh's culture reflects Tibetan Buddhism, Islam and trade along Central Asian routes; Kerala's reflects centuries of trade and contact with Arab, Jewish, Christian, Chinese and European communities.

Both statements are true, and the official key reads the reason as following from and illustrating the assertion, so the options calling either false or unrelated are rejected.
