Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). Assertion (A): Placentation in mustard and Argemone is parietal, and the ovary is one-chambered initially but becomes two-chambered due to the formation of a false septum. Reason (R): In free central placentation, the ovules are borne on central axis and septa are absent. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
