Explanation:

Let’s break it down:

- Statements:

- Only a few Sea are River.

- All River are Water bodies.

- Conclusions:

1. Some Sea are Water bodies.

2. All Sea are River.

- Option analysis:

- Conclusion I is spot on. If only a few Sea are River and every River is a Water body, then those Sea that are also River must be Water bodies. So, yes—some Sea are definitely Water bodies.

- Conclusion II goes too far. The statement says "only a few," not "all." So, not every Sea is a River.

Option 1 (Both I & II): Doesn’t work. Only the first conclusion follows.

Option 2 (Neither): Not right. At least the first one is true.

Option 3 (Either I or II): Nope. Both don’t have to be exclusive; in fact, only the first applies.

Option 4 (Only I follows): This is correct.

Option 5 (Only II follows): Nope.
