It is said some followers are dogwood but it didn't say all, so I think its "False".

How do we know that "all dogwoods are trees"?

Since most of the trees in the park are dogwood (flowering), there might be other trees which are flowering too, for me, the answer is "uncertain".

The correct answer is false. Because some of the trees in park are dogwood not all. So when we do it using venn diagram it will be wrong. So the correct answer is FALSE.

Suppose some of the dogwoods are shrubs. Then the third statement would be false. But since we don't have this information, the correct answer is "uncertain".
