Option 2: Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
Option 3: Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
Option 4: Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
Correct Answer: Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
Solution : The correct answer is (d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
The assertion is false. Recognition and respect primarily fall under the category of esteem needs in Maslow's hierarchy, not physiological needs. Esteem needs involve desires for recognition, respect from others, a sense of achievement, and feeling valued.
The reason is true. Physiological needs encompass fundamental biological and survival requirements such as food, water, air, shelter, sleep, and other bodily needs. The desire for recognition and respect is more related to higher-level social and esteem needs, not physiological needs.
