The correct answer is

Understanding the Classification Relationship

The question asks to represent the relationship between three classes: Rivers, Ganga, and Water bodies using a Venn diagram.

  • Water bodies is the most general category.
  • Rivers are a specific type of water body. Therefore, the set of Rivers is a subset of the set of Water bodies.
  • Ganga is a specific river. Therefore, the set Ganga is a subset of the set Rivers.

This implies a nested relationship:

Ganga $\subset$ Rivers $\subset$ Water bodies

Venn Diagram Representation

A nested subset relationship is best represented by concentric circles in a Venn diagram.

  • The innermost circle represents the most specific category (Ganga).
  • The middle circle represents the intermediate category (Rivers), completely enclosing the innermost circle.
  • The outermost circle represents the broadest category (Water bodies), completely enclosing the middle circle.

This structure visually demonstrates that every Ganga is a River, and every River is a Water body.

Identifying the Correct Diagram

The Venn diagram that accurately depicts this hierarchy consists of three concentric circles. The diagram matching this structure is shown in Option 2.
