In a sub-alternation relation, if the particular proposition is false, then the corresponding universal proposition is
ATrue
BFalse ✓ Correct
CBoth true and false
DDoubtful
Correct answer: (B) False
Explanation
In sub-alternation, if the particular is false, the corresponding universal is false.
The universal would entail the particular if it were true.
So a false particular blocks the universal from being true.
If "Some S are P" is false, "All S are P" cannot hold.
Falsity flows upward from particular to universal here.
