    C Only Conclusion III and I follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only Conclusion III follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of the Conclusions follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Only Cumin are Corianders → All Corianders are Cumin and Corianders cannot have any positive relation with anyone. Hence conclusion I does not follow. Only Cumin are Corianders → Some Cumin are Corianders (I) → Probable conclusion → All Cumin may be Corianders (A). Hence conclusion II follows. 100% Spices are Tamarinds → Conversion → Some Tamarinds are Spices (I). Hence conclusion III follows.
