Given below are two statements :
Statement I : Fig fruit is a non-vegetarian fruit as it has enclosed fig wasps in it.
Statement II : Fig wasp and fig tree exhibit mutual relationship as fig wasp completes its life cycle in fig fruit and fig fruit gets pollinated by fig wasp.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
- A Both statement I and statement II are correct
- B Both statement I and statement II are incorrect
- C Statement I is correct but statement II is incorrect
- D Statement I is incorrect but statement II is correct
