The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation


Step 1:
Statements: - All tigers are jungles. - No jungle is bird. - Some birds are rains.
Step 2:
Conclusion III: No bird is tiger. From "All tigers are jungles" and "No jungle is bird", we get that no tiger is bird. This is equivalent to no bird is tiger. So III follows.
Step 3:
Conclusion I and II: No rain is jungle / Some rains are jungles. We have "Some birds are rains" and "No jungle is bird". This gives no direct relationship between rains and jungles. It is possible that some rains are jungles or no rain is jungle. So either I or II could be true, but not both. Therefore, only either I or II follows.
Step 4:
Final Answer: Only either I or II follow, and III follows.
