Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option D

Only Conclusion II follows

Solution :

Correct Answer: Only Conclusion II follows


Detailed Explanation:


To determine which conclusion logically follows, we must analyze the given statement carefully without making unstated assumptions.


Statement Analysis:


"Under the recently enacted regulations, operating unauthorized commercial drones in national parks is strictly forbidden."


Evaluation of Conclusion I:


"Individuals are permitted to fly unauthorized commercial drones in locations other than national parks."


The statement only specifies a restriction regarding national parks. It does not state or imply that flying unauthorized commercial drones is allowed everywhere else. There could be other regulations prohibiting unauthorized drone flights in other areas (such as near airports or military zones). Therefore, Conclusion I does not logically follow.


Evaluation of Conclusion II:


"Unauthorized commercial drone flights cause disturbances to wildlife in national parks."


Regulations strictly forbidding unauthorized commercial drones in national parks are put in place to prevent negative impacts such as disturbances to wildlife and environment preservation. Hence, Conclusion II logically aligns as a valid conclusion/underlying rationale for such strict regulations.


Therefore, Only Conclusion II follows.
