III. A few Minute is Needle

A Only conclusion I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B Only conclusion II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C Only conclusions I and II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D Only conclusions I and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
E Only conclusions II and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

Every Clock is Time (A) → Conversion → Some Time are Clock (I) + Every Clock is Second (A) → Some Time are Second (I) + A few Minute are Second (I) → No conclusion. Hence neither conclusion I nor III follows. Every Clock is Time (A) + [No Needle is Time (E) → Conversion] → No Time is Needle (E) → No Clock is Needle (E). Hence conclusion II follows.
