When conducting survey, there are questions that are referred to be loaded. Loaded questions mean that the survey questions were not worded cautiously. It often leads to misleading. Some even intentionally words the question to gain the anticipated response. It forces the respondent to answer in a way that does not really reflect their opinion or situation. It also sways the respondent to choose a side instead of the question sounding neutral.

Hope this helps you!
