Explanation

A Gantt chart is a visual project management tool that displays tasks, durations, and dependencies along a horizontal timeline, making option B correct - it's specifically designed to map out what needs to be done and when. Options A and D are clearly out of scope: Gantt charts are planning tools, not design or coding tools. Option C is a tempting distractor because budgeting is part of project management, but cost tracking uses different tools (like budget spreadsheets or cost breakdown structures). Memory tip: Think of "Gantt" as "Gantt-t chart = Timeline chart" - the double-t reminds you it's about tasks on a timeline.
