Which term indicates the measure used to quantify the target response?

• A. Horizontal Axis
• B. Data Point
• C. Vertical Axis Label
• D. Equal-Interval Line Graph

Answer: (C)

The vertical axis label communicates what metric is being quantified. On a graph, the vertical axis (the y-axis) shows the measure, and its label names the specific quantity being tracked (for example, response rate, duration, or percentage). That label tells you what the target response is measured in. The horizontal axis typically indicates time or conditions, not the measure itself, while a data point is a single plotted value, and an equal-interval line graph is a graph type rather than a labeling term.
