In the given exercise, an Assertion is followed by the corresponding Reason. Mark the suitable answer from the given options:

1.

Assertion:	Interphase occupies more than \(95\) % of total generation time in cell division.
Reason:	In this phase, the cell prepares for the next division by synthesising essential substances required for cellular growth and replicating genetic material.

Both assertion and reason are correct, but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
Assertion is correct but reason is false.
Assertion is false, but reason is correct

3.

Assertion:	Mitosis plays a vital role in the growth, organ development and increase in body size of a multicellular organism.
Reason:	All the somatic cells are formed by mitosis.

Both assertion and reason are correct and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
Both assertion and reason are correct, but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
