Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
1. Analyze Statements: "All B are S" means B is entirely inside S. "No S are K" means S and K are completely separate sets.
2. Evaluate Conclusion I & II: Since B is inside S, "Some S are B" is automatically true. However, "All S are B" cannot be assumed. Thus, only Conclusion II is valid.
3. Evaluate Conclusion III: Since S and K have no overlap, and B is inside S, K and B can never overlap. "All K are B" is false.
Final Answer: Option C
