Directions: Sometimes we conclude about characteristics of a general phenomenon by studying or analyzing characteristics of a particular phenomenon. Below are given such inductive arguments. The generalisation is given first, followed by two particular statements. You have to find out whether the numbered particular statements strongly confirm, vaguely hint, contradict or are irrelevant to the generalisation. Read the question given below and answer accordingly.
