Assertion & Reason

Given below are two statements, one is labelled as Assertion (A) and other one labelled as Reason (R):

Assertion (A) : Potassium accelerates the translocation of photosynthates from leaves to tubers, increasing higher root yield in sweet potato.
Reason (R) : The quality characters like starch and protein contents decrease with increase in potassium in sweet potato.

In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

नीचे दो कथन दिए गए हैं, एक को अभिकथन (A) और दूसरे को कारण (R) के रूप में चिह्नित किया गया है:

अभिकथन (A) : पोटेशियम पत्तियों से कंदों में प्रकाश-संश्लेषकों (Photosynthates) के स्थानांतरण को तेज करता है, जिससे शकरकंद में कंद की उच्च उपज प्राप्त होती है।
कारण (R) : शकरकंद में पोटेशियम की वृद्धि के साथ स्टार्च और प्रोटीन सामग्री जैसे गुणवत्ता गुण कम हो जाते हैं।

उपर्युक्त कथनों के आलोक में, नीचे दिए गए विकल्पों में से सबसे उपयुक्त उत्तर का चयन कीजिए:
