Correct Answer: Assumption II is implicit


Solution : According to the given statements, let's analyse the assumptions –
Assumption I: If the student is not in his seat before 10 a.m., the function will not start – Based on the given statements, it is being said that the students are requested to take their seats before the address time. But it is nowhere stated that the function will not start if the students are not on time. Thus, this assumption does not follow.
Assumption II: The function will start as scheduled – Based on the given statements, it is mentioned that the function will start at the scheduled time, that is, 10 a.m. Thus, this assumption follows.

Therefore, from the above, only assumption II is implicit. Hence, the first option is correct.
