Discussion
Assertion (A) : Quality of Information received from the Internet is to be evaluated.
Reason (R) : Anybody can publish on the Internet.
Answer: A
The answer is Both (A) and (R) are true.
Assertion (A) is correct: information found on the internet should be evaluated before use, by checking its authority, accuracy, currency, objectivity and coverage.
Reason (R) is also correct, and it is the reason evaluation matters: anybody can publish on the internet, with no editor, publisher or peer review standing between the author and the reader, so quality is not guaranteed the way it is for a reviewed journal or a published book. With both statements true, every option that marks one of them false is wrong.
