<u>Answer</u>:
A) Determine the average number of times during a week in May that a group of bees visits flowers.
<u>Explanation</u>:
These observations may be mostly qualitative in nature at the real or exploratory stage of a study, but trials are usually done to show them in the form of quantitative data at some later stage. It is important that experimental information must be accumulated and arranged in a sequential fashion and in a form which can be understood by all: ideas may be more easily extracted, and results will be more easily drawn from data which have been arranged into a coherent pattern.
Diffusion is the spontaneous movement of substances from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.
Osmosis is the passage of water molecules from a high water concentration region through a selectively permeable membrane to a low water concentration region.
In diffusion, selectively permeable membrane is neither required nor involved while in osmosis, it is involved.

Answer:
When seeking to determine the number of shirts made by employees subjected to noise with and without the use of headphones, the dependent variable is the number of shirts made by the employee.
Explanation:
In a study or research, the dependent variable is the result of the intervention on the independent variable, which can be modified. In the case presented, the dependent variable is the quantity of shirts made by the employees, the number of which is measured at the end of the study.
It is expected that those employees who block the noise using headphones produce a greater number of shirts than those exposed totally or partially to noise.
For the other options:
- <u><em>The amount of noise</em></u><em>. This can modified by the use or not of headphones and is the independent variable, subject to modification.</em>
- <u><em>The type of music the employees listen to while they work</em></u><em>. Does not represent dependent or independent variable.</em>
- <u><em>The amount of training employees need</em></u><em>. It is not the variable being studied.</em>
