Which of the following is NOT a valid type of variable in Google Analytics Explorations?

• A. Segments
• B. Dimensions
• C. Metrics
• D. Funnels

Answer: (D)

In Google Analytics Explorations, you work with three kinds of variables to structure your analysis: segments, dimensions, and metrics. Segments let you focus on a subset of users or sessions, dimensions describe attributes of those users or sessions (like country, device, or landing page), and metrics are the numbers you measure (such as sessions, conversions, or revenue). Funnels, however, are a type of analysis/visualization that shows how users move through a sequence of steps, like a checkout process. It’s not a variable type you define or drag into your analysis. So Funnels isn’t a valid variable type, which is why it’s the correct choice.
