    B. A continuously variable wave with an indeterminate number of possible amplitudes.

    Read below:

    An analog or analogue signal is any continuous signal for which the time varying feature (variable) of the signal is a representation of some other time varying quantity, i.e., analogous to another time varying signal. It differs from a digital signal in terms of small fluctuations in the signal which are meaningful.

    An analog signal is variable ( D). It can be much more than just a wave. It can be a reading on a volt meter, an audiometer, pressure gage, a speedometer, an altimeter, thermometer.

    A digital signal is a choice between two as on/off or yes/no or 0/1. ( A)

    An analog signal is B, a continuous signal(etc. 1.02V, 0.8821A...)

    A digital signal is A, which is only 0, or 1.(High or low, pass or fail, true or false...)
