Complete Answer:

Assertion (A): Artificial kidney is a device used to remove nitrogenous waste products from the blood through dialysis.

Reason (R): Reabsorption does not occur in an artificial kidney.

Explanation:

The assertion is true because an artificial kidney (dialysis machine) indeed functions to remove nitrogenous wastes, like urea, from the blood.
The reason is also true since reabsorption, which is a key feature of natural kidney function (where essential substances are reabsorbed into the blood), does not occur in an artificial kidney.

Thus, both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true, but Reason is not correct explanation of Assertion.
