For Questions number 17 to 20, two
statements are given one labelled as
Assertion (A) and the other labelled
as Reason (R). Select the correct
answer to these questions from the codes (A), (B), ((C)
and (D) as given
below.

(A) Both Assertion (A)and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R)
is the

correct explanation of Assertion (A).

(B) Both ASsertion (A)and

Reason (R) are true, but Reason (R) is not
the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

(C) Assertion (A)is true, but Reason (R)is false.

(D) Assertion (A)is false, but Reason (R)is true.

17. Assertion (A): Oxygen is essential for all aerobic forms of life.

Reason (R): Free oxygen atoms combine with molecular oxygen to

form ozone.

18. Assertion (A): Most of the plants close their stomata at night.

Reason (R): Closing of stomata helps to conserve water as large

amount of water evaporates from the leaves.

19. Assertion (A): The extraction of metalsfrom their sulphide ores cannot

take place without roasting of the ore.

Reason (R): Roasting convertssulphide ores directly into metals.

20. Assertion (A) : Magnetic field lines never intersect each other.

Reason (R): If they intersect, then at the point of intersection, the

compass needle would point towards two directions, which

is not possible.
