Statements:
I. All T are N.
II. No M is N.
Conclusions:
I. All T are M.
II. Some T are not M.
Option 1: Both conclusions I and II follow
Option 2: Only conclusion I follows
Option 3: None of the conclusions follow
Option 4: Only conclusion II follows
Correct Answer: Only conclusion II follows
Solution : The possible Venn diagram according to the given statements is as follows –
Let's analyse the conclusion –
Conclusion (I):
All T are M – As shown in the diagram, there is the relation of no is given between the circles of T and M. So, this conclusion doesn't follow.
Conclusion (II):
Some T are not M – As shown in the diagram, no N is M and T is the part of N. So, this conclusion follows.
So, only the second conclusion follows. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
