Given below are two statements one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): When a particular restriction enzyme cuts strands of DNA, overhanging stretches or sticky ends are formed.
Reason (R): Some restriction enzymes cut the strand of DNA a little away from the centre of palindromic site.
 
In light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
1. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) correctly explains (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) does not correctly explain (A).
3. (A) is true, (R) is false.
4. (A) is false, (R) is true.
