Question

Read the given statements and conclusions carefully. You have to take the given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts. You have to decide which conclusion(s) logically follow(s) from the given statements.

Statements:  
No river is a mountain.    
Some rivers are animals.  
Some birds are mountains.

Conclusions:  
I: No animal is a mountain.  
II: No river is a bird.

Accepted Answer

Let's analyze the statements and conclusions step-by-step:

Statements:
1. No river is a mountain. (R ∩ M = 0)
2. Some rivers are animals. (R ∩ A ≠ 0)
3. Some birds are mountains. (B ∩ M ≠ 0)

Conclusion I: No animal is a mountain.
- From the statements, we know that some rivers are animals, and no river is a mountain. However, it is not stated that animals and mountains are mutually exclusive. There could be animals that are not rivers and could be mountains. So, this conclusion does NOT follow.

Conclusion II: No river is a bird.
- There is no direct or indirect relationship given between rivers and birds. Some rivers are animals, and some birds are mountains, but nothing connects rivers and birds. So, this conclusion does NOT follow.

Therefore, neither conclusion I nor II follows.
