In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
| Assertion (A): | Tribes living in high altitudes of Himalayas normally have a higher RBC count [or total haemoglobin] than people living in the plains. |

In an area, there are 200 carrot grass plants but only a single huge banyan tree with a large canopy.
1. Only I is correct
2. Only II is correct
3. Both I and II are correct
4. Both I and II are incorrect
| I. | The ecological role of the banyan tree in this community is negligible when compared to that of carrot grass. |
| II. | In this community, the percent cover or biomass is a more meaningful measure of the population size. |
1. Only I is correct
2. Only II is correct
3. Both I and II are correct
