    A statement is given followed by four alternative conclusions. Select the one which is most appropriate.
    Statements
    Some desks are caps. No cap is red.
    Conclusions
    I. Some caps are desks.
    II. No desk is red.

    A) Only I  

    B) Only II

    C) Either I or II                  

    D) Neither I nor II
