​Consider the given statement and decide which of the given assumptions is/are implicit in the statement.

Statement:

Eating food heated in plastic containers causes cancer, so it should be avoided.

Assumptions:

(I) Only storing food in plastic containers is not harmful to health.

(II) Non-plastic containers that can be used to heat food are available.

"Eating food heated in plastic containers causes cancer, so it should be avoided."

I:Only storing food in plastic containers is not harmful to health.

The statement only warns against heating food in plastic containers, but it does not mention whether storing food in plastic containers is harmful or not.

Since the statement does not confirm or deny the safety of storing food, this assumption is not implicit.

II:Non-plastic containers that can be used to heat food are available.

The statement advises avoiding heating food in plastic containers. This implies that alternative non-plastic containers must be available for heating.

Since the advice would not be practical without an alternative, this assumption is implicit.

Thus, correct option is (c) Only Assumption II is implicit.
