Question

Assertion (A): Members of teams often have complementary skills and are committed to a common goal or purpose.

Reasoning (R): An audience is a part of a team. They are polarised in attention, and actions of persons are in a common direction.

Options

• Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

• Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.

• A is true but R is false.

• A is false but R is true.

Answer 1

A is true but R is false.

Explanation:

• An audience is a type of group, not a team. So the first sentence, “audience is a part of a team”, is false, even though the second sentence (polarised in attention, common direction) is true for an audience.
• Because the reason, as a whole, is false, while the assertion (about teams having complementary skills and a common goal) is true, the correct option remains.
