Q. No.Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
| Assertion (A): | There is always a sharp decline in dissolved oxygen downstream from the point of sewage discharge, which causes mortality of fish and other aquatic creatures |
| Reason (R): | Micro-organisms involved in bio-degradation of organic matter in the receiving water body consume a lot of oxygen |
| 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. |
