The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is as follows:

[ alt="eee" src="//storage.googleapis.com/tb-img/production/21/03/eee.png" style="width: 400px; height: 148px;">

Conclusions:

I. some cows are camels → False (There is no such element named cow here, so no relationship can be established between camel and cow)

II. All lions are cows  → False (There is no such element named cow here, so no relationship can be established between lion and cow)

Hence, neither conclusion I nor II follows.
