Instructions

Each of these questions has a statement followed by two conclusions numbered as I and II. Consider the statement and the following conclusions. Decide which of the conclusions follows from the statement. Mark answer as

Question 122

Statement : Cardiac myopathy is marked by an increase in the size of heart and decrease in the efficiency of pumping.
Conclusions :

I. The bigger the size of heart the better it works.
II. The efficiency of the heart is inversely proportional to the size of the heart.

Solution

The statement talks about the two effects of cardiac myopathy on hearts: An increase in size and a decrease in efficiency. 

However, we cannot state the size of the heart is inversely proportional to the efficiency. It might be the case that this is a coincidental effect of cardiac myopathy, which is not the same in general conditions. Hence, the second conclusion is invalid.

The first option is again vague and slightly against the main premise, as there is nothing that speaks about the enhanced efficiency of a bigger heart.
