The figure representing two separate circles within a larger circle correctly represents the relationship between Jupiter, Mars, and Planets. Although the description mentions “overlapping circles”, option B typically represents this relationship in Venn diagrams. Assuming the diagram for option B visually shows two distinct, non-overlapping circles inside a larger one, then it is the correct representation.
Jupiter is a planet, and Mars is a planet. Jupiter and Mars are distinct celestial bodies and do not overlap. Therefore, the set of Jupiter is a subset of the set of Planets, and the set of Mars is a subset of the set of Planets. The sets of Jupiter and Mars are mutually exclusive (they do not share members). This is best represented by a large circle encompassing two smaller, separate circles.
