View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (b)B.

Only II follow

Why this answer is correct

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is as follows

Conclusions:

I. All wood can be ant → False ( as the only drum is wood, which means all wood is drum, and wood can form only positive relation with drum, not with other elements. Hence, All wood can be ant is false).

II. All ant can be drum → True ( as there is no relation between ant and drum. so, it is possible. Hence, all ant can be drum is true).

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (c)C.

Only I follows

Why this answer is correct

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is as follows:

 

Conclusion:

I. All stones are leaves is a possibility → True (As there is no definite relation between leaves and stones, If we will take stones inside leaves then no statement will be violated)

II. Some stones are not leaves → False (As there is no definite relation between leaves and stones but no negative statement is there so no negative conclusion will follow)

Hence, Only I follows​.

Additional information:

If there is no negative statement then no negative conclusion will follow.
