Correct Answer: Both assertion and reason are true, but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.


Solution : The correct answer is (b) Both assertion and reason are true, but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

The assertion is true, stating that marketing involves creating, distributing, promoting, and pricing goods and services. Marketing is indeed a multifaceted process that includes these aspects and more.

The reason, however, is not the correct explanation of the assertion. The reason incorrectly simplifies marketing to only advertising and promotion. While advertising and promotion are components of marketing, marketing involves a broader range of activities beyond just advertising, including product development, market research, pricing strategies, distribution channels, customer analysis, branding, and more.
