  • B. Only conclusion II follows
  • C. Either I or II follows
  • D. Neither I nor II follows
  • E. Both I and II follow

  • Correct Answer
  • Only conclusion I follows 

    Explanation
    The statement mentions that chances of heart ailments are greatly reduced by a regular half-hour exercise. So, I follows. However, it talks of only reducing the probability which does not mean that persons involved in sedentary jobs shall definitely suffer from heart ailments. So, II does not follow.
