Question

Let $f, g: \mathbb{N}-\{1\} \rightarrow \mathbb{N}$ be functions defined by $f(a)=\alpha$, where $\alpha$ is the maximum of the powers of those primes $p$ such that $p^{\alpha}$ divides $a$, and $g(a)=a+1$, for all $a \in \mathbb{N}-\{1\}$. Then, the function $f+g$ is

one-one but not onto
onto but not one-one
both one-one and onto
neither one-one nor onto
