Answer:

  1. C
  2. A

Explanation:

The response variable is measured on each individual. In this case the variable we must measure is whether a child caught a cold.

We must asses whether the milk is responsable for the changes in results, to assure this we must be sure that the child received a cup of milk at school each day.
