Option 1 states that both statements are individually true and that statement II is the correct explanation of statement I. Let`s analyze each statement to understand why option 1 is correct.

Statement I: Southern part of France is famous for wine making industry.

This statement is true. The southern part of France, particularly regions like Bordeaux, Burgundy, and Rhône Valley, is renowned for its wine production. The unique climate, soil composition, and centuries-old wine-making traditions contribute to the region`s success in the industry.

Statement II: Southern part of France produces a variety of fruits due to Mediterranean climate.

This statement is also true. Southern France benefits from a Mediterranean climate, characterized by mild, wet winters and hot, dry summers. This type of climate, coupled with fertile soils, creates ideal conditions for fruit cultivation. The region is known for its production of fruits such as grapes, peaches, apricots, cherries, and melons.

Therefore, statement II serves as a correct explanation of statement I. The Mediterranean climate that facilitates the variety of fruit cultivation in southern France is the same climate that contributes to the success of the wine-making industry. Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.
