   1. A table of numbers
   2. A picture of animals
   3. Bars of different heights
   4. A pie chart
   Show answer

   Answer: C. Bars of different heights

   A bar graph displays data using bars of different heights to represent values.

   1. 2
   2. 5
   3. 10
   4. 20

   1. Pictographs are more colorful
   2. Bar graphs can handle large data sets
   3. Bar graphs use more pictures
   4. Bar graphs are easier to read
