Question

Assertion: In phloem, sugars are translocated in non-reducing form.
Reason : Non-reducing sugars are most reactive sugars.
A. Both the Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.
B. Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
C. Assertion is true, but Reason is false
D. Assertion is false, but Reason is true
