Answer 1

Answer: (E)

- Conclusion I does not follow because the statement does not indicate that mangoes exported to Europe are unfit for human consumption. - Conclusion II does not follow because raw mangoes are not typically used for making mango juice or jelly, based on the given information. - Conclusion III does not follow because the statement says "some mangoes" are used for making jelly, not most. - Conclusion IV does not follow because it is not specified whether raw mangoes are used in jelly making.
