Selection components let people specify choices.

Selection components refer to the interactive elements in a user interface that allow users to choose from a range of options or select from a list. These components can include checkboxes, radio buttons, drop-down menus, sliders, and other similar elements. They are designed to be user-friendly, easy to navigate, and typically feature labels or additional information to help users understand their choices.
