Read the given statement(s) and conclusions carefully. Assuming that the information given in the statements is true, decide which of the given conclusions logically follow(s) from the statement(s). Statements: No lizard is a snake. All lizards are reptiles. Conclusions: (I) At least some reptiles are snakes. (II) All reptiles are lizards.
A.Only conclusion (II) follows
B.Neither conclusion (I) nor (II) follows✓ Correct
C.Both conclusions (I) and (II) follow
D.Only conclusion (I) follows
Explanation
Since lizards and snakes are separate groups within reptiles, we cannot say some reptiles are snakes (conclusion I is invalid), and reptiles can include non-lizards (conclusion II is also invalid). Neither follows.
