Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
D

• Assertion is wrong:

A herbarium is a storehouse of dried, pressed, and preserved plant specimens, not animal specimens.

• Reason is also wrong:

Herbarium sheet labels do not contain “only zoological names.” They include botanical information such as scientific name, family, locality, date of collection, collector’s name, etc.
