Explanation
Option A is correct because Dataprep is a GUI-driven, no-code data wrangling tool built for non-technical users - it lets them visually define transformations without writing code - and Connected Sheets embeds BigQuery data directly inside Google Sheets, satisfying the requirement to analyze in a spreadsheet.
Why the distractors fail:
- B gets the transformation tool right (Dataprep) but swaps the analysis tool for Looker Studio, which is a BI dashboarding tool, not a spreadsheet.
- C uses Connected Sheets correctly but chooses Dataflow for transformation, which requires writing Apache Beam pipelines in Java or Python - not suitable for less technical users.
- D is wrong on both counts: Dataflow requires coding, and Looker Studio is not a spreadsheet.
Memory tip: Match the user persona to the tool - "Dataprep = prepared for non-techies (GUI), Connected Sheets = it's literally Sheets." Whenever you see "non-technical + GUI + spreadsheet," the answer is always Dataprep → BigQuery → Connected Sheets.
