Let's analyse the conclusions – Conclusion (I): Some leaves are grapes – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that the circles representing leaves and grapes overlap each other and have a part of their area in common. So, from this, it can be concluded that some leaves are grapes. Therefore, this conclusion follows. Conclusion (II): All grapes are fruits – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that the circles representing fruits and grapes overlap each other and have a part of their area in common.
