Question 4 • PA-Biology CR

Where in a data table should units of measurement be shown?

Answer
A
in a separate column after the column of data values
B
in parentheses, in the title of the table
C
in the headings of columns that list the data values
D
in a note next to an asterisk, below the table

Explanation

Units should be shown in the headings of the columns containing the measurements, so readers can tell what each value means. For example, a heading might read “Distance (km).” Therefore, the correct choice is “in the headings of columns that list the data values.”
