Syllogism (set chaining): Identify which conclusions follow from the premises. Statements: S1: Some ants are parrots. S2: All the parrots are apples. Conclusions: C1: All the apples are parrots. C2: Some ants are apples. Choose the correct option.

Given data

• S1: ∃x such that x ∈ Ants and x ∈ Parrots.
• S2: Parrots ⊆ Apples.

Concept / Approach When some Ants are Parrots and every Parrot is an Apple, those same Ants are Apples. The converse universal claim about Apples need not hold.

Testing conclusions C2: True, because the intersecting elements from S1 are inside Parrots, and all Parrots are Apples ⇒ Some Ants are Apples. C1: False, because S2 gives Parrots ⊆ Apples, not Apples ⊆ Parrots.

Final Answer Only conclusion II follows.
