According to me, the 2nd Venn diagram is wrong.

Cows should be separate to Dogs Rats and Cows according to the statements. There is nothing showing that Cows are part of any group.

I think 2 and 3 follow because it is mentioned in the question that some rats are cats and some cats are dogs. Then how can the 2nd statement is false?

No dog is a rat should be true right.

So, The first statement is of course false. But 2 and 3 should be true.
