The table shows the foot lengths of pupils measured to the nearest millimetre.
Which statement about this variation is correct?
Foot lengths measured to the nearest millimetre form a smooth range of values with all intermediates, which is continuous variation. It does not fall into just two categories, it is not caused by diet alone, and it is not discontinuous, because there are no separate groups; the values grade into one another, so the variation is continuous.
