  • CStatement II alone is sufficient but Statement I alone is not
  • DEither statement alone is sufficient

Step-by-Step Solution

In I the two phrases share 'is' and 'bright' with codes 'la' and 'ma'; the only extra word 'sun' matches the only extra code 'ka', so sun = ka (I alone is enough). Statement II ('ma ka') cannot isolate 'sun' on its own.
Answer: A) Statement I alone is sufficient but Statement II alone is not
