Answer to Question 1

Discrete data form a finite set of values that are distinct from each other: the number of pages in a book or the number of soldiers within a platoon. Continuous data, on the other hand, are not distinguished from each other by a distinct marker but change into each other gradually: the rise and fall of temperature during the day or the weight of a child as he or she grows into adulthood.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
