The correct answer is II and III.

Explanation:

I. This statement is false. Visualizations can greatly enhance the viewer's understanding of relationships in the data by making patterns, trends, and correlations more apparent.

II. This statement is true. Visualizations such as graphs and charts effectively convey information and make it easier for viewers to grasp the insights compared to tables filled with text.
