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 cows are fruits – It is a possibility that the circles representing fruits and cows overlap. But this is not definite. Thus, this conclusion does not follow. Conclusion (II): Some fruits are foxes – It is a possibility that the circles representing fruits and foxes overlap. But this is not definite. Thus, this conclusion does not follow.
So, neither conclusion I nor II follows. Hence, the third option is correct.
