The best choice is D because it correctly describes all the components of a decision tree, including the box that indicates the decision point, the branches that represent the alternatives under consideration, and the outcomes associated with each alternative. Choice A and B are incomplete and do not describe all the necessary components, while choice C only includes one aspect of the decision tree.
