Statements: No magazine is cap. All caps are cameras. Conclusions: No camera is magazine. Some cameras are magazines.

Only conclusion I follows
Only conclusion II follows
Either I or II follows
Neither I nor II follows
Both I and II follow

Correct Answer: Either I or II follows

Explanation:

As discussed above, the conclusion must be particular negative and should not contain the middle term. So, it follows that 'Some cameras are not magazines'. However, I and II involve only the extreme terms and form a complementary pair. Thus, either I or II follows.
