- if only conclusion I follows
- if only conclusion II follows
- if either I or II follows
- if neither I nor II follows, and
- if both I and II follow
- if only conclusion I follows
Correct Option: A
I is obvious from the statement. But the words ' equal effected' used in conclusion II can't be correlated with the statement. Hence, conclusion II does not follow.
