Question

Given below are two statements, one is labelled as Assertion (A) and other one labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): Lawn is a ground cover of perennial turfgrasses which persists in close mowing and require proper management practices.
Reason (R): The ideal location of developing lawn in any garden is north, north-west or north east open and shady place for most of the day with adequate water availability.
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:

Sunlight is the most critical limiting factor for turfgrass growth. Lawns planted in heavy shade will eventually fail, making open, sunny locations a prerequisite for a healthy lawn.
