Statement:\n“It is none other than humans who destroy humanity.”\n\nAssumptions:\nI. Man is man’s enemy.\nII. Humans are destructive.\n\nWhich of the above assumptions are implicit in the statement?

Introduction / Context:
The aphoristic statement asserts that the agents of humanity’s destruction are humans themselves. We must unpack the implied premises: antagonism among humans (I) and a destructive capacity/propensity in humans (II).

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Claim: Humans destroy humanity (i.e., human-caused harm to human collective).
• Assumption I: Humans act against their own kind—“man is man’s enemy.”
• Assumption II: Humans possess and exercise destructive tendencies.

Concept / Approach:
If humans are the destroyers of humanity, then (a) at least some humans act inimically toward other humans or the human condition (I), and (b) those actions are destructive (II). The statement does not require that humans are only destructive or that antagonism is universal; it requires that such antagonistic destructiveness exists to a level that justifies the maxim.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Verification / Alternative check:

Why Other Options Are Wrong:

Common Pitfalls:
Assuming the statement claims exclusivity or universality; it need only assert that the primary or salient cause is human action.

Final Answer:
Both Assumptions I and II are implicit.
