B) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explaination of assertion.
C) A is true but R is false.

Dear Student,
The water in the deep sea appears blue because of the blue color of sky whose reflection we see in the water.
The color of the sky is blue because the white light coming from the sun get scattered by the tiny particles which presents in the air and produce a light of shorter wavelength which is blue.
Hence, assertion and reason both are true and reason is correct explanation of assertion (option A).
