Which of the following statements is true about quantization in digital signal processing?

A) It increases the number of bits used.

B) It converts continuous values into discrete values.

C) It removes noise from the signal.

D) It compresses the signal data.

Answer: B) It converts continuous values into discrete values.

Explanation: Quantization involves mapping a continuous range of values into a finite set of discrete values, making it essential for converting analog signals to digital format.
