Given below are two statements, one is labelled as Assertion (A) and other one labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : Myoepithelial cells force secretory product into duct system.
Reason (R) : Myoepithelial cells are well developed in sweat glands.
In 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:

Myoepithelial cells are of ectodermal origin but possess functional properties of smooth muscle cells, making them unique "hybrid" cells in mammalian histology.
