Explanation
Answer: E - A local teacher’s group donates to their town’s YMCA, and individual teachers also donate to their favorite charities. The likelihood that each donation will be specific to cause is a dynamic variable. Dynamic variables are variables that differ for a single donor from one cause to another. Thus, a teacher in the teachers group may donate to the YMCA and also donate to the local hospital. Dynamic variables of donors include their use of a product, their knowledge of a charity, and brand loyalty. All of these variables, unlike ones such as gender or age, are changeable and depend on the circumstances and level of knowledge of the donor.
