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): All animals are birds – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that some parts of the circle representing animals lie inside the circle representing birds while some lie outside . So, from this, it can be concluded that some animals are birds. Thus, this conclusion does not follow. Conclusion (I): Some animals are parrots – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that the circles representing animals and parrots overlap and have some parts of their area in common. So, it can be concluded that some animals are parrots. Thus, this conclusion follows.
So, the only conclusion II follows. Hence, the second option is correct.
