Final answer:

If the output of an AND gate is fed to an OR gate, it is called a NOR gate. If the output of an AND gate is fed to a NOT gate, it is called a NAND gate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement 1: If the output of an AND gate is fed to an OR gate, it is called a NOR gate.

Statement 2: If the output of an AND gate is fed to a NOT gate, it is called a NAND gate.

To determine the validity of the given statements, we need to analyze the definitions of NOR gate and NAND gate.

A NOR gate is a logic gate that produces an output of '0' only if all of its inputs are '1'. In other words, if the output of an AND gate is fed to an OR gate, it will only produce a '0' if all of the inputs of the AND gate are '1', which aligns with Statement 1.

A NAND gate is a logic gate that produces an output of '0' only if all of its inputs are '1'. In other words, if the output of an AND gate is fed to a NOT gate, it will only produce a '1' if all of the inputs of the AND gate are '1', which aligns with Statement 2.

Therefore, both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are true, and Statement 2 is a correct explanation for Statement 1. The correct answer is option A.
