What is a tornado diagram used for in sensitivity analysis?

Predicting weather patterns
Comparing relative importance of variables
Assessing the damage caused by tornadoes
Visualizing project timelines

The correct answer is: Comparing relative importance of variables

A tornado diagram is a type of chart used in sensitivity analysis to visualize the relative importance of variables that affect a project or outcome. It does this by comparing the potential impact of different variables on the overall outcome, with each variable represented on a bar or line in the chart. While predicting weather patterns and assessing tornado damage may be related to a tornado diagram, they are not specific purposes of it. Similarly, visualizing project timelines may involve a similar visual representation, but it does not directly pertain to sensitivity analysis. Therefore, B is the most accurate and relevant option for the question.
