Consider the given two statements:
Assertion (A): The genes encoding resistance to antibiotics such as ampicillin, chloramphenicol, tetracycline or kanamycin, etc., are considered useful selectable markers for E. coli.
Reason (R):  The normal E. coli cells do not carry resistance against any of these antibiotics.
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A).
2. (A) is True; (R) is False
3. (A) is False; (R) is False
4. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A).
