The histogram shows the frequency of Parkinson's disease diagnosis among females and males in different age groups. The highest bar for females is in the age group 75-79 and the second-highest bar is in the age group 80-84. Therefore, the highest incidence of Parkinson's disease among females is between 75 and 84 years. Additionally, the histogram shows that there are more males than females diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in all age groups. Thus, we can reject option A. Finally, the histogram does not provide enough information to support option B.
