The Assertion is incorrect. Frenkel defect is not called the dislocation effect. Frenkel defect refers to the displacement of ions within a crystal lattice of an ionic solid.

The Reason is partially correct. Frenkel defect indeed occurs in ionic substances where the cation and anion are similar in size, but it doesn't fully explain why Frenkel defect is also called the dislocation effect.

Therefore, the correct option is (C) Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
