Following are some of the conclusions following the statements. Statement: 1. Global warming is resulting in an increase in temperature. 2. Melting glaciers will cause water-level rise that will affect coastal areas. Conclusions: I. The only effect of global warming is the melting of glaciers. II. Global warming will affect people living in coastal areas. Decide which of the following conclusions logically follows from the given statement(s). A. Only conclusion I follows. B. Only conclusion II follows. C. Both I and II follow. D. Neither I nor II follows. Correct Answer B

Conclusions:

I. The only effect of global warming is the melting of glaciers. → False

Melting of glaciers is one of the effect of global warming but not the only effect. Hence, Conclusion I does not follow.

II. Global warming will affect people living in coastal areas.

From the given statements, global warming results in increase in temperature which causes melting of glaciers and melting of glaciers will cause water-level rise that will affect coastal areas, 

So, global warming will affect people living in coastal areas.

Hence, Conclusion II follows.

Hence, the correct answer is "Only Conclusion II follows".
