Answer: C

Explanation:

According to the WELL v2 Feature S01: Sound Mapping, acoustically quiet zones include areas intended for concentration, wellness, rest, study and/or privacy. Lactation rooms fall under this category, as they provide a private and comfortable space for nursing mothers. Classrooms, lift lobbies and recreational rooms are not considered as quiet zones, as they are either mixed zones, circulation zones or loud zones respectively.
