Answer 1

A is true but R is false.

Explanation:

Any population has variation in characteristics due to genetic differences. Therefore, Assertion (A) is true.

Variations are not always stable and inheritable. Some variations may be temporary or non-heritable. Therefore, Reason (R) is false.

Hence, A is true but R is false.
