Final Answer : B, Explanation :  The mode is the most appropriate measure of central tendency for this distribution because it is the value that appears most frequently, which in this case is 8, appearing four times. Other measures like mean and median do not specifically highlight the most common value in a distribution, and variance is a measure of dispersion, not central tendency.
