Detailed Solution & Explanation
A histogram is a graphical representation of a grouped frequency distribution. It is constructed by drawing adjacent rectangles (bars) over the class intervals on the horizontal x-axis, with heights proportional to the frequencies (or frequency densities) on the vertical y-axis.
- Because the bars in a histogram are adjacent to one another with no gaps (except when a class has zero frequency), it visually represents the continuous flow of data across intervals.
- Therefore, a histogram is specifically designed and used for representing a **Continuous Series** (or continuous frequency distribution).
- It is not used for individual series (which are simple lists), discrete series (which are represented by bar diagrams or line charts with gaps), or time series (which are represented by line graphs showing chronological trends).
Hence, **Option B** is the correct answer.
