Correct Answer: Only conclusion III follows
Solution : The possible Venn diagram, according to the given statements is as follows –
Let's analyse the conclusions – Conclusion (I): Some G is Z – From the diagram, it is evident that there is no direct relation between Z and G. So, this conclusion does not follow. Conclusion (II): All X is G – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that some parts of the circle representing X lie outside the circles representing G. So, it can be concluded that some X is G. Conclusion (III): Some Z is X – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that the circle representing Z lies inside the circle representing X. Since all Z is X, some Z will definitely be X. Therefore, this conclusion follows.
So, the only conclusion III follows. Hence, the second option is correct.
