The correct answer is: If both the assertion and reason are true and reason is a correct explanation of the assertion.
Death is regarded as the most important regulatory process on earth. It reduces the number of individuals in a population and avoids overcrowding caused by continuous reproduction. Overcrowding due to reproduction is countered by death as the ultimate termination of functional life.
