The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation


From the statement: - All engineers are intelligent (means: engineers \(\subseteq\) intelligent) 
- Some doctors are engineers (means: some doctors belong to the engineers group) 
Conclusion I: Some doctors are intelligent. Since some doctors are engineers and all engineers are intelligent, those doctors who are engineers must be intelligent. 
\(\Rightarrow\) Conclusion I follows. Conclusion II: All intelligent people are engineers. The statement says engineers are intelligent, but it does NOT say all intelligent people are engineers. There could be intelligent people who are not engineers. 
\(\Rightarrow\) Conclusion II does not follow.  
Final answer Answer: \(\boxed{\text{(A) Only I follows}}\)
