The correct answer is A

Step-by-step explanation:

A Venn diagram is a type of diagram used in mathematics and other fields to show sets and their relationship, because of this, Venn diagrams include at least two sets that are presented in two overlapped circles, in this each circle represents the elements that exclusively belong to each set, while the elements that belong two both sets are placed in the overlapped sections and the elements that do not belong to any of the sets are outside the circles. This implies, in the Venn diagram presented the elements that belong to swamp are in section B, the ones that belong to rainforest are in section D, the elements bot sets share are in section C and those that do not belong to any of the sets presented or that are different from the are in section A, as these elements are outside the circles and therefore do not belong to any of the sets that are represented by the circles.
