Consider the given two statements:
Assertion (A): A very low level of expression of lac operon is present in the E.coli cell all the time.
Reason (R): Lactose can enter the cell only due to the presence of β galactosidase in the cell.
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A).
2. (A) is False but (R) is True.
3. (A) is True but (R) is False.
4. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A).
