4. Neither Conclusion I nor II follows

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 4 : Neither Conclusion I nor II follows

Statement: People who sleep late tends to suffer from hypertension at young age

Conclusion I: People who sleep on time will not suffer from hypertension → False, from the information given in statement we can’t conclude that people who sleep on time will not suffer from hypertension.

Conclusion II: Old people who sleep late will not suffer from hypertension → False, there is no information given in statement regarding old people.

Hence, neither Conclusion I nor II follows.
