A bowl of fruit visualization demonstrates the D3 general update pattern for adding, removing, and updating SVG elements. Five apples appear in a row, then disappear, change into a lemon, and are removed at timed intervals using JavaScript setTimeout calls. The fruitBowl function uses D3’s selection methods—enter, merge, and exit—with scaleOrdinal for color and radius mappings. Rendering happens in SVG with D3 v5.
