Option 1: Only conclusion I follows
Option 2: Only conclusion II follows
Option 3: Only conclusion III follows
Option 4: No conclusion follows
Correct Answer: No conclusion follows
Solution : The possible Venn diagram, according to the given statements is as follows –
Let's analyse the conclusions – Conclusion (I): All scholars are men – According to the Venn diagram, the circle of men is completely inside the circle of scholars implying that all men are scholars and some scholars are men. So, all scholars are men is a false conclusion. Conclusion (II): Some men are advocates – According to the Venn diagram, there is no definite relation between men and advocates. Therefore, some men are advocates is incorrect. Conclusion (III): No man is an advocate – According to the Venn diagram there is no definite relation between men and advocates. Therefore, no man is an advocate is incorrect.
Therefore, no conclusion follows. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
