    C None follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D All follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Some ractangle are envelope(I) + All envelope are square(A) ⇒ Some ractangle are square(I) + Some square are bangle(I) ⇒ No conclusion. Hence conclusion I and III do not follow. All envelope are square(A) + Some square are bangle(I) ⇒ No conclusion. Hence conclusion II does not follow. Some square are bangle(I) + No bangle is circle(E) ⇒ Some square are not circle(O). Hence conclusion III does not follow.
