Assertion Reason Questions for CBSE Class 8 Science

Assertion-Reason questions, also known as Statement-Reason questions, are a type of examination question where two statements are given: an Assertion (a statement) and a Reason (an explanation). The student is required to evaluate the statements and determine the relationship between them. The possible relationships are:

  1. If both the Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.
  2. If both the Assertion and Reason are true but the Reason is NOT the correct explanation of the Assertion.
  3. If the Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.
  4. If the Assertion is false, but the Reason is true.

These types of questions are commonly used in various competitive exams and school assessments to test the students’ understanding and reasoning abilities.

Here’s an example of an Assertion-Reason question:

Assertion: Plants with broad leaves are usually found in tropical rainforests.

Reason: Broad leaves help plants to capture more sunlight in dark and dense rainforest environments.

Now the student needs to analyze whether both the Assertion and Reason are true and if the Reason correctly explains the Assertion, or if there is a different relationship between them.
