Question options:
The question was incomplete. I managed to find these options from other sources.
a) Hypothetical
b) Qualitative
c) Quantitative
Answer:
The correct answer is quantitative (option C).
Step-by-step explanation:
When a student is measuring the number of beats per second, he is dealing with numbers or counts. Measurement of values or counts is known as quantitative data. Quantitative data deals with quantity, not quality.
On the other hand, qualitative data deals with quality and Hypothetical data deals with hypothesis.
