Answer to Question 1

TO AVOID DISTORTING THE PICTURES, THE HEIGHTS ARE OFTEN PUT IN PROPER PROPORTION, BUT THEN THE AREAS BECOME INFLATED, MISLEADING THE READER.

Answer to Question 2

A BAR GRAPH IS MUCH MORE VERSATILE. IT CAN BE USED TO REPRESENT ACTUAL FREQUENCIES INSTEAD OF PERCENTAGES, AND TO REPRESENT PROPORTIONS THAT ARE NOT REQUIRED TO SUM TO 100.
