Consider the two statements:
| I: | Food chains rarely extend for more than 4 or 5 levels. |
| II: | Consumers at each level convert, on an average, only about 10% of the chemical energy in their food to their own organic tissue. |
1. Both I and II are correct and II explains I.
2. Both I and II are correct but II does not explain I.
3. Only I is correct.
4. Both I and II are incorrect.

| Assertion (A): | There is no limitation on the number of trophic levels in a detritus food chain. |
| Reason (R): | The transfer of energy between successive trophic levels in a detritus food chain does not follow the 10% rule. |
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
| 4. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
