Answer:

Option B is true.

Explanation:

B. Histograms can be used to exhibit the shape of distributions.

A histogram is used to graphically display data using bars of different heights. The shape of a distribution is based on the data's uniformity. The shape is described by the number of peaks a histogram can have. The histograms count the frequency of each possible answer. This makes it easy for us to see the common or uncommon results.
