Answer: A. Only conclusion I follows

Answer: (A) Only conclusion I follows

The cats that are dogs are also rats, so some cats are rats (I follows). “All dogs are rats” does not mean all rats are dogs (II does not follow).

Convention (as in SSC papers): the statements are taken as true even if they seem odd, every group named in a statement is assumed to have at least one member, and a conclusion follows only if it is true in every possible Venn diagram of the statements.
