Correct Answer: Neither conclusion I nor II follows
Solution : The possible Venn diagram according to the given statements is as follows –
Let's analyse the conclusions – Conclusion (I): Some goats are white – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that there is no direct relation between goats and white. So, no definite relation can be drawn. Thus, this conclusion does not follow. Conclusion (II): Some goats being gold is a possibility – Since all goats are black and no black is gold, so no goats will be gold. Thus, this conclusion does not follow.
So, neither conclusion I nor II follows. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
