Discussion
Assertion (A) : Primary sources provide authentic information for research.
Reason (R) : Information in primary sources is highly unorganised.
Codes :
Answer: C
Both (A) and (R) are correct.
Primary sources, such as research articles, patents, theses and reports, present first-hand, original information and are the authentic basis of research, so the assertion is correct.
The reason is also accepted: primary literature is vast and scattered across thousands of journals, reports and other forms, with no overall organisation. That is why secondary sources, indexes, abstracts and bibliographies, are needed to organise and give access to it.
