Correct Answer: Only conclusion I follows
Solution : Given:
Statement
The sun is the source of light.
Now, let's consider the conclusions:
I. The moon is not the source of light.
This conclusion cannot be definitively drawn from the given statement. The statement explicitly mentions the sun as a source of light, but it does not provide information about whether the moon is a source of light or not. Therefore, the correctness of Conclusion I is indeterminate.
II. Light has only one source.
This conclusion also cannot be definitively drawn from the given statement. While the statement mentions the sun as a source of light, it does not claim that light can have only one source. Light can come from various sources, both natural and artificial, apart from the sun. Therefore, Conclusion II is also indeterminate.
In summary, both Conclusion I and Conclusion II cannot be confirmed or refuted based solely on the given statement.
Hence, the fourth option is correct.
