The correct answer is C) bar chart. A histogram is a graphical representation of the distribution of numerical data. It is a type of bar chart where the bars are drawn such that they are adjacent to each other (unless there are gaps in the data), and each bar represents the frequency or count of data falling within a specific bin or range.
A histogram uses bars to show the frequency distribution of data, making it a specific type of bar chart. The x-axis represents the data ranges (bins), and the y-axis represents the frequency.
