Reason: For finite taper ratio, wing thickness will be different at root and tip. ] Both and are true and is the correct reason for

Taper ratio is defined by ratio of tip chord to the root chord. Hence, for tapered wing the thickness of the wing will be different at each location. For, finite value of taper ratio root and tip chord will have different values. These different values of the chord will affect the weight of wing as well.
