Assuming the statements to be true, even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the conclusions logically follows/follow from the statements. Statements: All cars are trains. All trains are scooters. Some scooters are cycles. Conclusions: I. All cycles are cars. II. Some cycles are trains.
