Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The conclusion derived from the survey is likely to be a correlation rather than causation. In other words, saying that happiness causes workers to be productive can be a misleading conclusion. It is also likely that workers who are productive are happier because they are performing better than their colleagues. There can be other explanations to being happy at the work place. For example, if the job provides workers a good match for their skills, they will be happy to use their skills, which will make them more productive.
