To represent the data from the table accurately, we need to look at the number of friends who like each ice cream type:

- Chocolate: 3 friends
- Pistachio: 1 friend
- Strawberry: 2 friends
- Vanilla: 4 friends

Using this information, the correct dot plot will have:
- 3 dots above "Chocolate"
- 1 dot above "Pistachio"
- 2 dots above "Strawberry"
- 4 dots above "Vanilla"

From the options provided:

1. **Option 1**: 1 dot above Chocolate, 3 above Pistachio, 2 above Strawberry, and 4 above Vanilla (Incorrect).
2. **Option 2**: 1 dot above Chocolate, 2 above Pistachio, 3 above Strawberry, and 4 above Vanilla (Incorrect).
3. **Option 3**: 3 dots above Chocolate, 1 above Pistachio, 2 above Strawberry, and 4 above Vanilla (Correct).
4. **Option 4**: 3 dots above Chocolate, 1 above Pistachio, 4 above Strawberry, and 2 above Vanilla (Incorrect).

Thus, the correct option is **Option 3**.
