    C Only conclusion I follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Both conclusion I and II follow. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of the above. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Some beaker are buckets (I) + Some buckets are pots (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion I does not follow. All flask are beaker (A) + Some beaker are buckets (I) → Probable conclusion → Some flask may be buckets (I). Hence conclusion II follows. Some tumblers are flask (I) + All flask are beaker (A) → Some tumblers are beaker (I) → Conversion → Some beaker are tumblers (I). Hence conclusion III follows.
