Answer 1

The polynomial \(2x^2 + 2\) is a **quadratic binomial**.

It is quadratic because the highest degree of the term is 2 (the \(x^2\) term), and it is a binomial because it consists of two terms (the \(2x^2\) term and the constant term \(2\)).

So, the correct description is:

**quadratic binomial**.
