Detailed Solution & Explanation

The graphical representation of a cumulative frequency distribution is known as an ogive (or cumulative frequency curve). It is constructed by plotting cumulative frequencies against class boundaries and connecting the points with a smooth curve. It is useful for finding partition values such as the median and quartiles. A histogram represents a simple grouped frequency distribution, whereas a historigram is a graphical representation of time series data. Therefore, the correct term for cumulative frequency representation is the ogive. Hence, **Option C** is the correct answer.
