Solution

The correct answer is "If only conclusion I follows".

Here's the step by step reasoning:

Statement 1: All mangoes are grapes. This means that whatever is true for all grapes is also true for some mangoes.

Statement 2: Some grapes are black. This means that there is a possibility that some mangoes (which are also grapes according to statement 1) can be black.

So, Conclusion I: Some mangoes being black is a possibility. This is correct.

Conclusion II: There is a possibility that some mangoes are not. This is not mentioned or implied anywhere in the statements. So, this is incorrect.

Therefore, only conclusion I follows.
