If all Zips are Zaps, and no Zap is a Zop, then

Correct answer: B. no Zip is a Zop

  • A. some Zips are Zops
  • B. no Zip is a Zop
  • C. all Zops are Zips
  • D. some Zaps are Zops

Explanation

Nonsense words are used deliberately so that the answer depends only on the structure and not on any real world knowledge. Zips sit inside Zaps, and Zaps are entirely separate from Zops, so no Zip can be a Zop. Treating the terms as pure symbols is the correct approach.
