Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
The research may not be answered completely if a quantitative design is used, because the research question is not amenable to quantitative research. There are various reasons for doing a nonexperimental study, including situations in which the independent variable inherently cannot be manipulated (Prognosis questions) or in which it would be unethical to manipulate the independent variable (some Etiology questions). Experimental designs are also not appropriate for Descriptive questions.
