Answer
Both A and R are False.
Reason — Ichthyology and Pisciculture are not the same. Ichthyology is the scientific study of fish, while Pisciculture is the technique of growing fish. Both the branches are different, but not because they deal with different types of fishes, rather because they serve different purposes.
