Answer: Third option is correct.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

The number of freshmen entering college in a certain year = 621

It is considered as discrete data.

Since we know the definition of Discrete which refers to all types of data which take only numerical values.

It is based on counts.

According to question, we have given the exact number of freshmen instead of any range or interval.

Hence, Third option is correct.
