Correct Answer: Only conclusion II follows
Solution : The possible Venn diagram according to the given statements is as follows –
Let's analyse the conclusions – Conclusion I: Some birds are parrots – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that there is no direct relation between birds and parrots. So, no definite relation can be drawn. Thus, this conclusion does not follow. Conclusion II: All birds are chicks – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that the circle representing birds completely lies inside the circle representing chicks. So, from this, it can be concluded that all birds are chicks. Thus, this conclusion follows.
Therefore, only conclusion II follows. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
