To answer this question, we need to understand the concepts of categorical statements and syllogisms.

The given statements are:

1. All snarks are sneels.
2. Some sneels are bontos.

We need to determine whether the statement "some snarks are definitely bontos" is true or false.

To do this, we can use the method of Venn diagrams to visually represent the relationships between the categories mentioned in the statements.

Let's represent the categories "snarks," "sneels," and "bontos" using overlapping circles:

       snarks
      _______
     |       |
sneels|       |
     |_______|______
            bontos

According to the first statement, "all snarks are sneels." This means that the circle representing snarks is entirely contained within the circle representing sneels.

According to the second statement, "some sneels are bontos." This means that there is at least one overlapping region between the circles representing sneels and bontos.

Based on the given information, we can conclude that there is a possibility of some snarks being bontos. However, it is also possible that there are no snarks that are bontos.

Therefore, the statement "some snarks are definitely bontos" is not necessarily true. It could be true, but it is not guaranteed.

Hence, the correct answer is B) False.
