Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
The chart updates to show methods for that status
Clicking a status value sets a token ($selected_status$) that triggers a search refresh for the chart panel, which depends on that token. This causes the chart to update to show methods for the selected status. The table does not change because it has no dependency on the token. Option A is incorrect because the token is indeed used and the chart updates. Option B is incorrect because only the chart updates, not the table. Option C is incorrect because the table does not filter; only the chart updates.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Nothing happens; the token is not used
Why it's wrong here
The token is set and the chart depends on it, so it does refresh.
- ✗
Both the table and chart update
Why it's wrong here
Only the chart depends on the token.
- ✗
The table filters to show only events with that status
Why it's wrong here
The table search does not use the token.
- ✓
The chart updates to show methods for that status
Why this is correct
The chart search uses $selected_status$ and refreshes when the token changes.
