The <u>asnwer is D, They both show the relationship of components to a whole</u>.
This is because a cosmograph <em>is a graph used to map the general features of the universe</em> while a pie chart <em>is a a type of graph in which a circle is divided into sectors that each represent a proportion of the whole</em>.
Since the <u>universe encompasses the entirety of the world, hence a </u><u>whole</u>, you can conclude that the cosmograph, as well as the pie chart, aim to show the components to a whole.
The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "c. They both visually represent complex political statistics." The statement that best explains how a cosmograph is similar to a pie chart is that <span>c. They both visually represent complex political statistics.</span>
I would say C) "'Oh, my poor Mathilde! But mine was imitation. It was worth at the very most five hundred francs! …'" (Paragraph 14) is the best option.
