Answer:

c. They are all qualitative methods

Step-by-step explanation:

The information sourced by the researchers are not numerical and may not require statistical or mathematical methods for analysis, rather it is most likely tended to answer questions about the behaviour and trends of adolescents which is typical of qualitative studies.
