In a column or bar chart you are preparing for a monthly sales dashboard, which chart element is responsible for displaying the category names or numerical intervals along the horizontal or vertical axes so that viewers immediately understand what each bar represents?
Axis labels identify the categories or numeric intervals that each bar represents. A legend is used to distinguish separate data series on a chart, a title announces the main subject, and gridlines act as reference markers for measurement. Axis labels specifically call out the units or categories on the horizontal or vertical axis, helping viewers understand what each bar conveys.
