If we collect a large sample of blood platelet counts and if our sample includes a single outlier, how will that outlier appear in a histogram? Choose the correct answer below. A. The outlier will appear as a tall bar near one side of the distribution. B. Since a histogram shows frequencies, not individual data values, the outlier will not appear. Instead, the outlier increases the frequency for its class by 1. C. The outlier will appear as a bar far from all of the other bars with a height that corresponds to a frequency of 1. D. The outlier will appear as the tallest bar near the center of the distribution.

    Explanation:

    When we perform platelet analyses on blood samples by analyzer. The analyzer will analyse the sample and give us the quantity of platelets in blood sample as a result along with histogram which represents the quantity of platelets present in sample. In histogram the result of platelets are illustrates in average form together in a bar form which are close to each other but outliers show far from these bars as a single bar which can be too low but mostly they could be too high in quantity.

    That's why the outliers bar will show far from the other average bars.
