Answer to Question 1

An omitted variable is something that has been left out of a study which, if included, would explain why two variables are correlated. For example, it is seen that the rate of employees quitting is lower in firms that pay higher wages. Thus, a conclusion can be drawn that higher wages result in lower quit rates. But there are many other variables that might influence the quit rates apart from wages such as employee benefits provided by the firm, age of employees, work-life balance, etc. These variables that have been left out are omitted variables and if included in the study would better explain the quit rates of firms.

Answer to Question 2

D
