      A Only conclusions III and IV follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Only conclusion III follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Only conclusions II and IV follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Only conclusions II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E All of the above conclusions follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Statements: Only a few Leg is Hands Some Arms is Leg No Ear is Leg Only a few Ear is Eyes Conclusions: I. Some Hands are Arms II. Some Ears are not Eyes III. All Arms can be Ear IV. No Eyes is Hands Some Arms is Leg (I) + Only a few Leg is Hands (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion I does not follow. Only a few Ear is Eyes → Some Ears are not Eyes. Hence conclusion II follows. Some Arms is Leg (I) + [No Ear is Leg (E) → Conversion] → No Leg is Ear (E) → Some Arms are not Ear (O) → Probable conclusion → Some Arms can be Ear (I). Hence conclusion III does not follow. No Ear is Leg (E) + Only a few Leg is Hands (I) → Some Hands are not Ears (O) + Only a few Ear is Eyes (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion IV does not follow.
