Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Three subjects are selected who demonstrate the same target behavior in the same settings. Baseline data are collected on all 3 subjects. As subject 1 receives intervention, subjects 2 & 3 continue in baseline phase. When subject 1 reaches criterion performance of the target behavior, then the independent variable is implemented with subject 2 . The process is repeated until subject 3 also receives the independent variable. The dependent and independent variables are the same for each subject.
