question which can normally be answered
using a simple "yes" or "no", a specific
simple piece of information, or a
selection from multiple choices.
 No options or predefined categories
are suggested.
 The respondent supplies their own
answer without being constrained by a
fixed set of possible responses.

someone or something.

person to whom the question is
