Three statements are given, followed by three conclusions numbered I, II, and III. Assuming the statements to be true, even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements.
Statements:
All nodes are joints.
Some joints are bones.
All bones are cartilage.
Conclusions:
I. No node is a bone.
II. All joints are cartilage.
III. Some cartilages are nodes.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4, i.e., None of the conclusions follow.
Conclusions:
I. No node is a bone → Does not follow (Can't say because not given a direct relation between both.)
II. All joints are cartilage → Does not follow (According to the statement, we can see that some parts of joints are Cartilage, but all joints are cartilage; we can't say.)
III. Some cartilages are nodes → Does not follow (Can't say because not given a direct relation between both.)
