    Statements: All hands are arms. Each arm

    is leg. Some hands are eyes. No arm is an ear. Conclusions: I. Some arms are eyes. II. Some leg being ears is a possibility. III. Some hands are ears.
    A Only conclusion I and conclusion II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only conclusion I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only conclusion II and conclusion III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D All conclusions I, II and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Only conclusion III follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Some hands are eyes (I) → Conversion → Some eyes are hands (I) + All hands are arms (A) → Some eyes are arms (I) → Conversion → Some arms are eyes (I). Hence conclusion I follows. No arm is an ear (E) → Conversion → No ear is an arm (E) + Each arm is leg (A) → Some leg are not ear (O) → Probable conclusion →  Some leg may be ears (I). Hence conclusion II follows. All hands are arms (A) + No arm is an ear (E) → No hand is an ear (E). Hence conclusion III does not follow.
