Which of the following correctly describes a Poisson random variable?
 a. It does not generate a binomial either/or outcome because only a single type of outcome or event is occurring during the Poisson process.
  b. It is not confined to a fixed number of trials, because its value can equal any discrete integer between zero and infinity, along a continuum of time or space.
  c. It equals the number of occurrences of a specified event within a specified time or space.
  d. All of these.
  e. None of these.

Question 2
