Correct Answer: Only conclusion I follows
Solution : According to the statements, the Venn diagram is given below –
Let's analyse the conclusions – Conclusion (I): Some birds are dogs – From the above diagram, it is clear that all birds are dogs as a circle of birds is overlapped by the circle of the dogs. If all birds are dog is correct it's obvious that some birds are dog is also correct. So, this conclusion follows. Conclusion (II): Some dogs are not red – From the above diagram, it is clear that some dogs are red but it's not mentioned anywhere that some dogs are not red and we can't follow any negative conclusion from the positive statement. So, this conclusion doesn't follow.
So, only the conclusion I follow. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
