Given is a statement followed by two assumptions numbered I and II. Consider the statement and the following assumptions and decide which of the assumptions is/are implicit in the statement. Statement: “One of the reasons of obesity is binging on junk food”, says a mom to her daughter. Assumptions: I. Junk food causes obesity. II. Rita and Gita are mom and daughter. Correct Answer Only assumption I is implicit.
From the statement we know that “the reasons of obesity is binging on junk food,” which is very clear and therefore, we can assume that “junk food causes obesity”. But the statement gives no information about Rita and Gita, so the assumption that “Rita and Gita are mom and daughter” cannot be implied.
Hence, “only assumption I is implicit”.
