• B. Only conclusion II follows
• C. Either I or II follows
• D. Neither I nor II follows

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Only conclusion II follows

Since both the premises are universal and one premise is negative, the conclusion must be universal negative and should not contain the middle term. So, only II follows.
