Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The term "least" in the question implies that we are looking for the option that does not describe the shape well. Skewed distributions have a tail towards one side, which implies that the data is not evenly distributed around the center. Therefore, (D) skewed is the best answer because it is the option that least describes the shape of the distribution. The other options (normal, symmetrical, and unimodal) all imply a more even distribution of data.
