    pulses. No pulses is a rice. Some rice are tea. Conclusion : I. Some sugars are not rice. II. Some pulses are not teas. III. No rice is a wheat. IV. Some pulses are teas.
    A Only either I or III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only I , III and either II or IV follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only I, II and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only I, II and IV follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Some sugars are wheat (I) + All wheat are pulses (A) ⇒ Some sugars are pulses (I) + No pulses is a rice (E) ⇒ Some sugars are not rice (O) ⇒ Hence, only I will follow. No pulses is a rice (E) + Some rice are teas (I) ⇒ Some teas are not pulses (O). Hence, conclusion II and IV do not follow but it will make a complementary pair. All wheat are pulses (A) + No pulses is a rice (E) ⇒ No wheat is a rice (E). Hence, conclusion III follow. ALTERNATE SOLUTION: Relevant Minimal Possibility:
