Assertion : Nitogen - fixing bacteria in legume root nodules survive in oxygen - depleted cells of nodules. Reason : Leghaemoglobin completely removes oxygen from the nodule cells.A. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of AB. Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of AC. A is true, but R is falseD. A and R are false |
