Answer to Question 1

B
Count is another word for frequency. Count is not the same things as the number of categories; it is the number of responses that fall within a given category. The category that had the most responses would have the highest frequency.

Answer to Question 2

C
If each respondent gives a single response, then the total number of frequencies should equal the number of respondents.
