    C If either conclusion I or II follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D If neither conclusion I nor II follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    No ring is a diamond (E) + All diamonds are pearl (A) ⇒ Some pearl are not ring (O) + Some bangle are pearl (I) ⇒ No conclusion. Hence neither conclusion I nor II follows but it will make a complementary pair. Hence either conclusion I or II follows.
