Question

Statement: All flowers are leaves. Some leaves are green. Conclusion I: Some flowers are green. Conclusion II: All leaves are flowers. Which of the conclusions logically follow(s)?

• A. Only I follows
• B. Only II follows
• C. Neither I nor II follows
• D. Both I and II follow

Hint:

In logical reasoning, always examine the relationships between the statements and conclusions. One statement doesn’t imply the other unless explicitly mentioned.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Given statements: "All flowers are leaves" and "Some leaves are green". From "All flowers are leaves", it is established that the set of flowers is a subset of the set of leaves. This does not imply the reverse, meaning "All leaves are flowers" (Conclusion II) is false.For Conclusion I ("Some flowers are green"): Since all flowers are leaves, and some leaves are green, it is a logical deduction that some flowers must also be green. Therefore, Conclusion I is valid. Answer: \(\boxed{A}\)
