a. Filtering displays only those records that match the criterial you specify; other records are temporarily hidden.

Explanation:

The first one is definitely true as we have a lot of data, and it is hard to decide from that level of data. Hence, it can be hard to analyze the data as the data is huge. However, if the data is filtered then we can end up with less data, and thus we can analyze through visualization, machine learning the data, and also make better use of the Data Science, statistics.

Others are false.
