Explanation

A pie chart (B) is the best choice for showing composition - that is, how individual categories contribute to a whole (100%). Pie charts are specifically designed to display part-to-whole relationships, making them ideal for survey response distributions across categories. A histogram (A) is used for frequency distribution of continuous data. A line chart (C) shows trends over time. A scatter plot (D) shows correlations between two variables. A waterfall chart (E) shows cumulative changes to a value. Since the goal is to visualize the proportion each survey response category holds relative to the total, the pie chart is the most appropriate.
