Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

To solve this, we analyze each syllogism in LIST-I to determine its Mood and Figure.

A. All M are P, Some M are S ∴ Some S are P: The middle term 'M' is the subject in both premises, indicating Figure 3. The mood is AII. This matches IV (AII-3).

B. No M are P, Some S are not M ∴ Some S are not P: The middle term 'M' is the subject in the major premise and predicate in the minor, indicating Figure 1. The mood is EOO. This matches I (EOO-1).

C. All P are M, All S are M ∴ All S are P: The middle term 'M' is the predicate in both premises, indicating Figure 2. The mood is AAA. This matches II (AAA-2).

D. Some P are M, Some S are M ∴ Some S are P: This is invalid due to the undistributed middle term.

Based on the analysis, A matches IV, B matches I, and C matches II. This corresponds to Option 3.
