Conclusions:

I. All pharmacists are mathematicians → False (As All pharmacists are statisticians and Some statisticians are mathematicians so, All pharmacists are mathematicians, hence, false)

II. Some pharmacists are mathematicians → False (As All pharmacists are statisticians and Some statisticians are mathematicians so, Some pharmacists are mathematicians hence, false)

III. Some mathematicians are statisticians → True (As Some statisticians are mathematicians so, Some mathematicians are statisticians it is definitely true)

IV. Some statisticians are pharmacists → True (As All pharmacists are statisticians so, Some statisticians are pharmacists it is definitely true)

∴ Here, Conclusions III and IV are true.

Hence, the correct answer is "Both conclusions III and IV follow".
