Correct answer is (a) True

For explanation: Re is reynolds number which relates to inertial force due to flow of solution to the viscous force resisting that flow. Low value of Re indicates streamlined flow, whereas high Reindicates progressively more turbulence. Re depends on the configuration of the system, at which there is a transition from streamlined flow to turbulent flow. Therefore, Re is critical. Hence the statement is true.
