The vertical axis of a bar graph starts at a high value instead of zero. What may happen?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Differences between the bars may appear larger than they really are

The governing concept is a truncated or non-zero vertical scale. When a bar graph begins at a high value, the visible portions of the bars represent only the amount above that starting point, so a small numerical difference can look disproportionately large. The data values do not change; only their visual comparison is distorted. Therefore, option B is correct. Option A gives the opposite effect, while C and D are unrelated.
