Correct option is B
Political culture indeed refers to a set of beliefs, sentiments, and values about politics that are reflected in the behavior (both verbal and non-verbal) of people. The Reason (R) discusses the typological and morphological models of political culture, which suggest that political cultures can vary greatly depending on the dynamics of political development. While both statements are accurate on their own, Reason (R) does not directly explain the Assertion (A).
