Which is the best diagram, showing the relation among Father, Mother and Family?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) →
In a Venn diagram, a circle inside another means “is a part of”, and circles that do not touch share no members. Father and mother are both members of a family, so both circles lie inside the family circle; no person is both a father and a mother, so the two circles do not overlap.
Why the other options are incorrect
Option (1) — Incorrect. Circles one inside another would make every father a mother (or every mother a father).
Option (2) — Incorrect. Three separate circles would put father and mother outside the family.
Option (3) — Incorrect. Overlapping circles would allow someone to be both father and mother, and a father or mother outside the family.
