    Reason (R).
    Answer the question by selecting the appropriate option given below:
    Assertion: The eardrum plays a crucial role in the hearing process..

    Reason: The eardrum is a thin stretched membrane located at the end of


    the ear canal.

    (b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
    (c) A is true but R is false.

    Q2.Assertion: Sound waves do not travel through a vacuum.
    Reason: The speed of sound is too small when compared to the
    speed of light.
