Question

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). Assertion (A): Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, a disease that occurred in 2020 spread all over the world. Reason (R): COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus. Choose the most appropriate answer.

• 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:

A reason may be true but still not explain the assertion. In COVID-19, being caused by coronavirus explains the disease, but not fully the global spread.
