Correct Answer: Only conclusion I follows


Solution : The possible Venn diagram according to the given statements is as follows –

Let's analyze the conclusions –
Conclusion I: No good is a delivery – Since all goods are services and no service is delivery. Thus, it can be concluded that no good is a delivery.
Conclusion II: Some goods are deliveries – Since all goods are services and no service is delivery, so no good is a delivery. Thus, this conclusion does not follow.

So, the only conclusion I follows. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
