- All bars have equal spacing and equal width.
- The lower end of the bar touches the base line starting from zero.
- This is a frequently asked question in SSC, Banking, and Railway exams.
Why Other Options Are Wrong

- C. Three-dimensional: Bar diagrams are not three-dimensional.
- D. No dimension: Bar diagrams do have one dimension (height).
