Depending on what kind of answer a person can give to a question they're asked, questions can be:
Closed-ended - there is a limited number of answers a person can choose. Examples of closed-ended questions are multiple-choice questions, alternative questions (e.g. yes/no questions), and rating-scales.
Open-ended - a person is free to answer a question however they want. Options are not limited.
All of the questions you were given except for the third one are examples of open-ended questions. When answering the first question, a patient can list any symptom. When answering the third question, they can say <em>yes </em>or <em>no</em>. This is the main difference between closed- and open-ended questions.
