D Correct answer
Explanation

Interaction can be used in graph visualization to allow users to explore the graph interactively, highlight changes in the graph over time, and make the graph more engaging. By allowing users to interact with the graph, they can zoom in and out, pan around, and select and highlight specific nodes and edges. This makes the graph more informative and easier to understand.
