    Below are two statements. One is labeled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other as Reason $(R).$

    Assertion $(A):$ The property of an object that allows it to regain its original shape after the external force applied to it is removed is called elasticity.

    Reason $(R):$ The restoring force depends on the intermolecular and interatomic forces in a solid.

    In the context of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
