Concept:

1) We have to check the conclusions are 100% match with the statement. If the conclusion is 100% match with the given statement then the conclusion is true. If there is a 1% chance of not following the statement then the conclusion is considered to be false.

2) The possibility case can be considered to be "false" in "definite case".

3) In Possibility case, either "can" or "possible" word must be present.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is as follows:

F1 Puja Madhuri 16.06.2021 D9

Conclusions:

I. Some bags are not bottle → False (There is no direct relation given between bottle and bags so it can be possible but not definite, hence, false)

II. Some plastic are not bags → False (As "Some bags are plastic" given so some plastic can be bags it can be possible but some plastic are not bags it is not definite, hence, false)

Hence, the correct answer is "None follows".

Additional Information

Note: The answer here will not be “Neither conclusion I nor II follows”.

Don’t get confused as in the “neither-nor case” the subject and predicate in both the conclusions must be the same.
