Answer:

bar graph

Step-by-step explanation:

A bar graph

You want to show that there is no connection between one species and another.

The line graph will do exactly the opposite. It will imply that the line joining 2 points gives some connection between one point and the next point.

The Pie chart is usually used to compare one number size with a another, like the total number of Covus 19 by state each state close to the other. It is not a good choice because California (for example) might have the most number of cases of the virus but it also has the largest population. You might use the pie chart by converting it to %s, but what would that give you, and how could you use it.
