Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Nominal variables classify data into categories without order, matching Ethnicity (III). Ordinal variables involve ranked categories, corresponding to Satisfaction Level (I). Interval data has equal intervals but no true zero, fitting Year of Death (IV). Ratio variables have a true zero point, aligning with Weight (II). The correct matching is A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II.
