I. All parakeets are snakes. → True (All parakeets are cuckoos, All cuckoos are rabbits and, All rabbits are snakes.)
II. All snakes are cuckoos. → False(it is possible but not definite)
III. All rabbits are parakeets. → False (it is possible but not definite)
IV. All cuckoos are snakes. → True(All cuckoos are rabbits and All rabbits are snakes.)
Hence, Only conclusions I and IV follow.
