Consider the two statements:
Assertion (A): Secondary growth takes place in dicot stems but not in monocot stems.
Reason (R): Hypodermis is collenchymatous in dicot stems while it is sclerenchymatous in monocot stems.
 
1. (A) is True but (R) is False
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not explain (A)
3. (A) is False but (R) is True
4. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A)
