Explanation:

A VARIANT column in Snowflake can store semi-structured data types. This includes:

B . OBJECT: An object is a collection of key-value pairs in JSON, and a VARIANT column can store this type of data structure.

D . ARRAY: An array is an ordered list of zero or more values, which can be of any variant-supported data type, including objects or other arrays.

The VARIANT data type is specifically designed to handle semi-structured data like JSON, Avro, ORC, Parquet, or XML, allowing for the storage of nested and complex data structures.
