Assertion (A): Endoplasmic reticulum functions as a system for transporting materials from one part of the cell to another. Reason (R): It is a system of membrane-enclosed channels which extends throughout the cytoplasm of the cell and interconnects with the plasma membrane and the nuclear envelope.
In the following question there are two statements, Assertion (A) and Reason (R), consider both the statements independently and mark your answers as under:

2. If A and R both are correct and R is not correct explanation of A.
3. If A is correct and R is incorrect.
4. If A is incorrect and R is correct.
5. If A and R both are incorrect.
