D) If both the assertion and reason are false
E) If the assertion is false but reason is true
Correct Answer: E
Solution :
A leaf with stipules is called stipulate while the one without stipules is termed as exstipulate. Wheat has amplexicaul stipules (enclosing stem completely). In grasses an outgrowth is present between leaf base and lamina. It is called ligule. The leaf with ligule is called ligulate.
