Excretory Products and their Elimination

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.

Assertion A: Nephrons are of two types, cortical and juxtamedullary, based on their relative position in the cortex and medulla.

Reason R: Juxtamedullary nephrons have a short loop of Henle whereas cortical nephrons have a longer loop of Henle.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. A.Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
  2. B.Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A.
  3. C.A is true but R is false.✓
  4. D.A is false but R is true.

You have the answer. The worked solution — and why the other three were written — is part of a paid pack.
