Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Given statements: All clocks are watches. Some clocks are alarm.
From "Some clocks are alarm" and "All clocks are watches", the clocks that are alarm are also watches.
Therefore "Some alarm are watches" follows.
There is no statement that every watch is an alarm; "All watches are alarm" does not follow because watches may exist that are not clocks or not alarm.
Final answer: Only conclusion I follows.
