Answer 2

In question 1,

The correct answer is Option B, Numerical Data

• The rest of the other options also are the characteristics of research where data are in form of statistics but it more emphasizes quantitative and numerical data.

In question 2,

The correct answer is Option A, Future Outcomes

• The rest of the other options are used for the present conditions, since the future is unpredictable data needs to be gathered beforehand to avoid risk.

In question 3,

The correct answer is Option C, Describes Past Conditions

• Descriptive research always focuses on the present data, so except for option C, all the other option is true.

In question 4,

The correct answer is Option C,  Academic Performance of High school Students

• The rest of the other options like attributes to malnutrition children or public opinion are expressing quality, they cannot be evaluated by numbers but the academic performance can be evaluated by a quantitative study.
