Detailed Solution & Explanation

In the presentation of data through tabulation, a statistical table is structured with various essential parts to ensure clarity and authenticity: 1. **Stub**: The leftmost column of the table, containing row descriptions or headings. 2. **Body**: The main central part of the table containing the actual numerical data values. 3. **Caption**: The headings of the columns and sub-columns. 4. **Footnotes**: Placed at the very bottom of the table to provide supplementary explanations, definitions of terms, abbreviations, or limitations of the data. 5. **Source Note**: Usually placed below the table (often as a footnote or right under the footnotes) to mention the source from which the data was collected, indicating its reliability and allowing verification. Since the source of data is presented at the bottom of the table to acknowledge the origin, it is represented in the footnote/source note section. This corresponds to Option D. Hence, **Option D** is the correct answer.
