उत्तर
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
Explanation:
The assertion is true because chromosomes house the DNA segments called genes, which code for inherited traits and are passed down from parents to offspring. The reason is also true because these chromosomes are structurally contained within the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. However, the reason does not explain the assertion, as simply being physically located inside the nucleus is not the functional mechanism behind how or why traits are transmitted.
