Solution

Based on the given statements, we can draw the following conclusions:

(I) Fruits that are trees are not flowers. This conclusion is valid. The statement "No tree is a flower" implies that anything that is a tree, including fruits that are trees, cannot be a flower.

(II) No fruit is a flower. This conclusion is not necessarily valid. The statements do not provide any information about the relationship between fruits and flowers. It is possible that some fruits could be flowers, or that no fruits are flowers. We simply do not have enough information to draw this conclusion.
