SSC GD Constable 2018 Question Paper PDF Hindi (8-Mar-2019) (Shift 3)
The correct answer is

Only conclusion II follows.

Two 'Some' statements with a common middle term (hangers) give no definite conclusion linking the other two terms.

Conclusion I (Some zoos are fishes) links zoos and fishes only through 'hangers', so it does not follow definitely.

Conclusion II (Some hangers are fishes) is exactly statement 2, so it follows.

Hence, Only conclusion II follows..
