    Solution

    Some Bud are Pearl (I) + All Pearl are Flower (A) → Some Bud are Flower (I). Hence conclusion I does not follow. All Pearl are Flower (A) + No Flower is a Stem (E) → No Pearl is a Stem (E) → Probable conclusion → No conclusion. Hence conclusion II does not follow. Some Bud are Pearl (I) + All Pearl are Flower (A) → Some Bud are Flower (I) + No Flower is a Stem (E) → Some Bud are not Stem (O). Hence conclusion III does not follow.
