• D. Neither conclusion I nor Il follows

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Only conclusion I| follows

Let’s analyze logically:

Statements:

1. All leaves are trees

2. Some trees are plants

   Conclusion I: Some leaves are plants

• We know some trees are plants, but it does not guarantee those trees include leaves.

• So, no definite connection between leaves and plants.

Does NOT follow

Conclusion II: All leaves are trees

• This is directly given in the statement.

Follows

Final Answer: Only conclusion II follows
