Correct answer: D

Every physicist is a scientist: Physicists lies inside Scientists.
Some scientists are women and some are not: Women overlaps Scientists.
Some physicists are women and some are not: Women overlaps Physicists too.
So a small circle inside a larger one, with a third circle overlapping both.

Worth noting

Two overlapping circles inside a larger one would put every woman inside Scientists.
