Answer:

B. the diameter of the Ferris wheel

Explanation:

The diameter will best describe the distance that a person on the top of a Ferris wheel is from a person on the bottom of the Ferris wheel.

This is as a result of the fact that it covers the entire length f the circular Ferris wheel.

The radius is only halfway of the Ferris wheel.
