The correct answer is A. If I drink juice, then it is breakfast time.
If it is breakfast time, then I drink juice.

This answer is an if-and-only-if conditional statement.
The other options are not.

Answer:

The two conditional statements are:

A.    If I drink juice, then it is breakfast time.

      If it is breakfast time, then I drink juice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional statement--

A conditional statement is a statement of the type:

   If p then q

where p is the hypotheses and q is the conclusion.

The biconditional is given as follows:

I drink juice if (and only if) it is breakfast time.

We know that:

  p if (and only if) q

means If p then q

and if q then p

i.e. the statement holds both ways.

       Hence, the conditional statements are:

A.  If I drink juice, then it is breakfast time.

      If it is breakfast time, then I drink juice.
