To deal with Analytics first, this is a term now used in business circles as a substitute for the word Statistics, but it really means the same thing. The word Statistics is considered by some people, especially businessmen, as a bit old-fashioned, and sometimes even difficult to pronounce! But don’t be fooled: Analytics is a fancy word for Statistics. When it comes to Data Science, however, the term does have some different meaning. Data Science is a field that includes Statistics as well as areas such as Computer Science, Database Management and Data Visualization, for example, and has come into being mainly as a result of the spectacular growth in the amount of available data in this new information world that we live in. The need has been recognized for someone who not only has statistical skills, but also advanced programming skills and knowledge about handling huge data sets, the so-called “Big Data” of today. Thus a new profession has been born, that of the Data Scientist. Again, don’t be fooled: the main skill of a data scientist is knowledge of Statistics,

As also understood from the information given, the correct answer is E. “Statistics” and “Analytics” really mean the same thing. Statistics, Computer Science, Database Management and Data Visualization are the areas which Data Science includes. They do not mean the same thing.
