Explanation:

A stem - and - leaf plot records the original data values by splitting each data point into a stem and a leaf. Histograms group data into intervals and do not show the original values. Also, for large data sets, stem - and - leaf plots can become cumbersome, while histograms can handle data of all sizes more easily by using intervals.

Answer:

What is an advantage of using a stem - and - leaf plot instead of a histogram?
B. Stem - and - leaf plots contain original data values where histograms do not.

What is a disadvantage of using a stem - and - leaf plot instead of a histogram?
C. Histograms easily organize data of all sizes where stem - and - leaf plots do not.
