Correct answer: D

Explanation

Based on the given statements, we can represent the relationship using a Venn diagram:
• Statement 1: All fruits are sweet (Fruits circle is completely inside Sweet).
• Statement 2: All sweet things are delicious (Sweet circle is completely inside Delicious).
Evaluating the conclusions:
• Conclusion (1): All fruits are delicious – Since the entire 'Fruits' circle is inside 'Sweet', which is inside 'Delicious', all fruits are definitely delicious. Hence, conclusion (1) follows.
