Answer 1

Answer: A double-barreled question

Explanation:A double-barreled question, is a question that is usually misleading because it uses one question which addresses more than one issue but expects a person to give only one answer.

, "How have teachers and students responded to the new intensive block scheduling system?" This question is asking about how teachers responded to the new intensive block scheduling system and also how the students responded to the same thing but these have been combined into one question such that when one answered about the teacher's response they would be no indication of whether they are responding to the teacher's response or student's response.
