Detailed Solution & Explanation

A bar graph (or bar chart) is a graphical representation of data using rectangular bars with heights or lengths proportional to the values they represent. When the bars are oriented vertically, it is specifically referred to as a vertical bar graph. In contrast, a line graph uses lines to connect data points, a scatter plot uses individual dots to show relationship between variables, and "vertical graphs" is not a standard statistical term for this representation. Therefore, the correct graph is a bar graph. Hence, **Option D** is the correct answer.
