A Box Plot (also called Whisker Plot) is a visualization tool used to summarize data distribution using five-number summary:
Minimum,
First quartile (Q1),
Median (Q2),
Third quartile (Q3),
Maximum.
It also highlights outliers explicitly.
Option A (Box Plots): Correct.
Option B (Pie Charts): Show proportions, not distribution.
Option C (Histogram): Shows frequency distribution but not quartiles/median.
Option D (Scatter Chart): Used for relationships between two variables, not summary statistics.
Option E (Bar Charts): Compare categories, not statistical spread.
Thus, the correct answer is Option A (Box Plots).
