Answer:

  B.  If A plant is bamboo, then it is a grass. If a plant is a grass, then it is a graminoid. A plant is bamboo. Therefore, the plant is a graminoid.

Step-by-step explanation:

A syllogism is a sequential implication:

  If p then q, and If q then r   ⇒   p therefore r.

__

To choose the example, you need to find the elements of each implication and see if they match this pattern.

A: p ⇒ q; q ⇒ r; r ∴ p . . . . not a syllogism

B: p ⇒ q; q ⇒ r; p ∴ r . . . . the syllogism we're looking for

C: p ⇒ q; q ∴ p . . . . not a syllogism

D: p ⇒ q; p ∴ q . . . . not a syllogism
