Consider the given two statements:
Assertion (A)​​​​​: The repetitive satellite DNA sequences form the basis of DNA fingerprinting.
Reason (R)​​​​: These sequences normally do not code for any proteins, but they form a large portion of human genome.
 
1. Both (A) ​​​​​​​and (R) ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​are True and (R) ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​correctly explains (A)​​​​​​​​​​.
2. (A) ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​is True but (R) ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​is False.
3. Both (A) ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​and (R) ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​are True but (R) ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​does not correctly explain (A)​​​​​​​​​​​​​.
4. (A) ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​is False but (R) ​​​​​​​is True.
