Answer:

This is a statistical question

Explanation:

A statistical question gives you an answer that just contains one number.

Example of statistical question: How old are you?

Since this question can be answered without varying data, this is a non-statistical question.

Example of statistical question: How old are the students in your school?

Since this question requires a lot of varying data, this is a statistical question.

So finally, in your case, "How heavy are elephants?", this is a statisical question because it is asking about more than 1 elephant.
