Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Answer: Neither conclusion I nor II follows.
The statement says: All organized persons find time for rest.
This means: if a person is organized, then that person finds time for rest.
Sunitha finds time for rest. But this fact alone does not imply that Sunitha is organized. Concluding that she is organized would be affirming the consequent, which is not valid logical reasoning.
There is also no information connecting finding time for rest with being industrious. Therefore, conclusion II also does not follow.
Hence, neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows. The correct answer is Option D.
