B. All Sonas are bright. Some bright are crazy. Some sonas are crazy
C. No faith is strong. Only strong have biceps. No faith has biceps.
D. All men are weak. Some weak are strong. Some things are weak.

Answer 1

Answer:

C. No faith is strong. Only strong have biceps. No faith has biceps.

Explanation:

The question above is related to the topic of "Syllogism." This is a type of reasoning which consists of a premise or premises and a conclusion. The conclusion is logically derived from the premises. In order to do this, the two premises have to be joined together.

Among the choices above, letter B shows a conclusion that has been logically derived from the first two premises. Its premises support the conclusion.

"No faith has biceps." is a valid argument because it is supported by a premise ("No faith is strong.") and another premise ("Only strong have biceps.").

"Only strong have biceps" also means that "All biceps are strong."
