Correct Answer: Only conclusion II follows


Solution : The possible Venn diagram according to the given statements is as follows –

Conclusion I: All D are F – From the above diagram, there is no direct relation between D and F. So, this conclusion doesn't follow.
Conclusion II: Some F is E – From the above diagram, some E is F, and it also follows vice versa. So, this conclusion follows.
Conclusion III: All E is D – According to the given statements, the circle of D is completely inside the circle of E. Therefore, all D are E and some E are D. So, this conclusion doesn't follow.

Therefore, only conclusion II follows according to the given statements. Hence, the second option is correct.
