Solution

The given statements are:

  1. All funnels are flasks.
  2. No flask is a beaker.
  3. All funnels are test tubes.

From these statements, we can infer the following:

  • Since all funnels are flasks and no flask is a beaker, it follows that no funnel is a beaker. Therefore, conclusion II is correct.
  • Since all funnels are test tubes and no funnel is a beaker, it follows that some test tubes (the ones that are funnels) are not beakers. Therefore, conclusion I is also correct.

So, the correct option is "If both conclusion I and conclusion II follows".
