What is the process by which collected data is processed to identify trends and relationship patterns?

Data storage
Data analysis
Data retrieval
Data integration

The correct answer is: Data analysis

Data storage involves holding onto data and not actively analyzing it. Data retrieval refers to accessing data from a source, but not necessarily analyzing it. Data integration is the process of combining data from multiple sources, not necessarily for the purpose of identifying trends and relationships. Data analysis involves using various methods and techniques to examine data and identify patterns and trends. Therefore, data analysis is the most suitable process for identifying trends and relationship patterns.
