Correct Option: 4
Statement: "The use of non-conventional sources of energy will eliminate the energy crisis in the world."Conclusion I: "Modern technology is gradually replacing the conventional sources of energy" - Statement implies a shift towards non-conventional energy sources - This shift requires modern technology - This indicates modern technology is replacing conventional sources - Therefore, conclusion I followsConclusion II: "The excessive exploitation of environment has led to depletion of conventional sources of energy" - Statement indicates there is an energy crisis - Crisis implies depletion of conventional sources - Environmental exploitation connection is established - Therefore, conclusion II also followsHence, both conclusions follow.
