Question:medium

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R
Assertion A: Bovine serum albumin (BSA) is not immunogenic when injected into cow but is strongly immunogenic when injected in rabbit.
Reason R: The greater the phylogenetic distance between two species, the less the structural disparity between them.

Show Hint

Immunogenicity depends directly on "Foreignness":
Greater Phylogenetic Distance = GREATER Structural Disparity = Higher Immunogenicity.
