I) All trees are woods → Does not follows →  As some trees are branched and all woods are branches. Then all trees are woods is a possibility. It is not a definite true.

II) All branches are woods → Does not follows → All woods are branches then, all branches are woods is a possibility. It is not a definite true.

Hence, the correct answer is "Neither conclusions I nor II follows".
