NUV-r normalised radial profile for three barred galaxies positioned differently on the SFR-M plane is shown with corresponding colour-coded bar half-lengths. The star-forming barred galaxy (blue) lies in the star-forming region, as determined by both the MPA-JHU (Brinchmann et al. 2004) and GSWLC (Salim et al. 2018) catalogues. The quenched barred galaxy (red) is positioned in the quenched region in both catalogues, while the centrally quenched galaxy (Galaxy 9) is selected from our sample. All three galaxies share similar stellar masses around the median value (logM ∼ 10.9 M), within comparable redshifts and axial ratios (b/a). The figure clearly pictures the role of bars in driving barred galaxies from the MS to the quenched region by inducing a cessation of star formation.
