The electron distribution in $d^{n}$ coordination complexes depends on the magnitude of crystal field splitting,$(\Delta_{0})$ and pairing energy $(P).$ The condition which favours the formation of high spin complexes is

Given below are two statements $:$
Statement $(I) :$ In octahedral complexes,when $\Delta_{o} < P$ high spin complexes are formed. When $\Delta_{o} > P$ low spin complexes are formed.
Statement $(II) :$ In tetrahedral complexes because of $\Delta_{t} < P$,low spin complexes are rarely formed.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below $:$
