Option 1: This option states that both statements are individually true and that Statement II is the correct explanation of Statement I. However, this is not the correct option in this case. The correctness of Statement I does not depend on the explanation provided in Statement II.

Option 2: This is the correct option. It states that both statements are individually true but Statement II is not the correct explanation of Statement I. This means that while both statements are true, Statement II does not accurately explain Statement I. This aligns with the given information because Statement II is not providing any explanation for Statement I, it is simply providing additional information.

Option 3: This option states that Statement I is true but Statement II is false. However, both statements are indeed true, so this option is incorrect.

Option 4: This option states that Statement I is false but Statement II is true. However, this contradicts the given information, as Statement I is indeed true. Thus, this option is incorrect.

In conclusion, the correct answer is Option 2. Both statements are individually true, but Statement II is not the correct explanation of Statement I.
