The best answer would be b. An object includes information about relationships between the facts within the object and information about its relationships with other objects

Explanation:

An object-oriented data model portrays a very different way to define and use entities. It is described by its factual content and unlike an entity, an object includes information about relationships between the facts within the object, as well as information about its relationships with other objects. Therefore, the facts within the object are given greater meaning. The OODM is said to be a semantic data model because semantic indicates meaning.
