Statements: All Racket is Badminton. Some Badminton is Tennis. Conclusions: I. Some Tennis is not Badminton. II. Some Badminton is Racket.

    B Only conclusion II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only conclusion I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Neither conclusion I nor II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
