Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
The intersection of events A and B is the event that occurs when both A and B occur. This is known as the intersection because it represents the overlap between the two events. Option A is the definition of XOR (exclusive OR) and option B represents the complement of the union of A and B, which is not the same as the intersection. Option D is incorrect because only option C is true.
