Explanation

Let's analyze the sequence:15, 14, 12, 9,?

The pattern seems to involve subtracting decreasing amounts:

15−1=14

14−2=12

12−3=9

Following this pattern, the next subtraction should be:

9−4=5

Thus, the missing term is 5.

Explanation

In this context, "subtle" refers to a change that is not obvious or dramatic but rather slight and may require careful observation to notice.

Explanation

Let's analyze the given statements and the conclusions:

Given statement

1. All omnivores are herbivores.
2. No herbivores are carnivores.
3. Some carnivores are humans.

Conclusion:

• I. Some humans are carnivores.
  This is true based on the third statement, which explicitly says some carnivores are humans.

• II. No carnivores are omnivores.
  This is true because all omnivores are herbivores, and no herbivores are carnivores (as per the second statement).

• III. Some omnivores are carnivores.
  This is false because no herbivores (and hence no omnivores, since they are herbivores) can be carnivores, according to the second statement.

Conclusion:

Thus, the correct answer is: a. I and II.

Explanation

Order is the law of civilization as chaos is the law of the Wilderness.

This pairing contrasts the structured nature of civilization with the untamed aspects of the wilderness.
