Answer 1

The correct choice is: "The question is open-ended and debatable."

Explanation: Strong research questions are clear, focused, and invite analysis or argument rather than a simple factual yes/no. They are not trivial (minor details), not so broad they cover many aspects at once, and they do not have one obvious right answer.
