Q.

statements:
All jungles are tigers. Some tigers are horses.
Conclusions:
I.Some horses are jungles.
II.No horse is jungle.
                        
A. Only conclusion I follows B. Only conclusion II follows
C. Either I or II follows D. Neither I nor II follows

Answer: Option C
Explaination:

 


Since the middle term 'tigers' is not distributed even once in the premises, no definite conclusion follows. However, I and II involve only the extreme terms and form a complementary pair. So, either I or II follows.
