CORRECT ANSWER:

b. bivariate data

Explanation:

b. bivariate data: deals with two factors that can shift and are contrasted with relationship seeking. If one variable affects another, then you will have bivariate data with an independent variable and a dependent variable. That's because change relies on one variable for change. An independent variable is a state or piece of data that can be monitored or modified within an experiment. In an experiment, a dependent variable is a state or piece of data that is regulated or affected by an external factor, most often the independent variable.
