Correct option is C
If the statement
"Some men are vegetarians" is false, it implies that
there are no men who are vegetarians. This means the correct logical inferences are:
1.
(B) No men are vegetarians – This statement is true because the falsity of "some men are vegetarians" implies the complete absence of vegetarian men.
2.
(C) Some men are not vegetarians – This statement is also true because if no men are vegetarians, it logically follows that all men are non-vegetarians, which supports this inference.
