Option 1 . Not correct because in 2nd statement cats is undistributed according to rule as in universal negative (E) statement both subject and predicate is distributed so this is wrong more over E+A =O* (reverse).
Option 2. Again E+A=O* (reverse) fallacy or mistake as you understand and distribution fallacy is also here.
Option 3 is correct According to conversion rule A changes only in I here subject and predicate interchange their position.
Option 4. The answer can never be positive if any statement is negative so this is also wrong.
Option 2. Again E+A=O* (reverse) fallacy or mistake as you understand and distribution fallacy is also here.
Option 3 is correct According to conversion rule A changes only in I here subject and predicate interchange their position.
Option 4. The answer can never be positive if any statement is negative so this is also wrong.
