Correct answer: Bar charts, Scorecards.
Why this is the answer
Bar charts and scorecards are data visualizations that inherently display quantitative information. To do this, they require a connection to a data source (like a spreadsheet, database, or API) that provides the metrics and dimensions they visualize. Without data, these components cannot function as intended. Images are static visual elements that are uploaded directly and do not require a data source. Embedded content, such as a YouTube video or a Google Doc, is pulled from an external URL and displayed within the report, but it does not directly consume data from a Data Studio data source for its own rendering.
