Correct Answer: $33\frac{1}{3}\%$


Solution : From the given graph,
The total number of boys from all the departments = 60 + 220 + 100 + 160 + 120 = 660
The number of boys in the Biology Department = 220
The required percentage = $\frac{\text{The number of boys in the Biology Department}}{\text{The total number of boys from all the departments}}$ × 100
The required percentage = $\frac{220}{660}$ × 100
The required percentage = $33\frac{1}{3}\%$
Hence, the correct answer is $33\frac{1}{3}\%$.
