Correct Answer

✅ Option a — Bell-shaped curve

All Options:

  • ABell-shaped curve
  • BU-shaped curve
  • CJ-shaped curve
  • DMixed curve

Detailed Solution & Explanation

Let us define the characteristics of different frequency curves: - **Bell-shaped curve**: The frequency starts low, rises to a maximum somewhere near the center, and then gradually falls to its lowest value at the other end. This is characteristic of a normal distribution. - **U-shaped curve**: The frequencies are high at both extremities and low in the center. - **J-shaped curve**: The frequency starts minimum and reaches its maximum at the other extremity (or vice-versa).
Thus, the description matches a bell-shaped curve. Hence, **Option A** is the correct answer.
