Detailed Solution & Explanation

A frequency distribution is a tabular summary of data showing the frequency (number of occurrences) of items in each of several non-overlapping classes. It exhibits the following key properties: 1. **Order**: It organizes raw data systematically, typically arranging observations in an increasing order of magnitude. 2. **Grouping**: It groups a large number of individual observations into a manageable number of classes or groups to make the data understandable. 3. **Variable**: It relates to a measurable characteristic (a quantitative variable, such as height, weight, or test scores) or an attribute (qualitative characteristic). Since a frequency distribution satisfies all these descriptions, the correct choice is Option D. Hence, **Option D** is the correct answer.
