Phylogenetic classification systems assume:
1. Organisms are grouped based solely on physical characteristics.
2. All species evolve at the same rate.
3. Classification should reflect evolutionary relationships and common ancestry.
4. Environmental factors have no influence on evolutionary history.

Assertion(A): The two kingdom classification used for a long time was found inadequate.
Reason(R): This system did not distinguish between the eukaryotes and prokaryotes, unicellular and multicellular organisms and photosynthetic (green algae) and non-photosynthetic (fungi) organisms.
Choices for Assertions and reasons:
1. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is true, but (R) is false.
4. (A) is false, but (R) is true.
