Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): The buffering capacity of buffalo milk is high in comparison to Cow milk.
Reason (R): Buffalo milk contains higher calcium and casein content in comparison to Cow milk.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

• A. Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
• B. Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
• C. (A) is correct but (R) is not correct
• D. (A) is not correct but (R) is correct

Hint:

Higher protein (casein) + minerals = higher buffering capacity in milk.
