I’m not so sure about this one, could it be A instead?

Wait, is it really B? I thought asking questions was more active than that.

I thought it was A at first, but B makes more sense.

I vaguely recall that Inactive Observation isn't a common term in our studies. I wonder if that's a distractor in this question.

I'm a bit confused; I thought Passive Observation was just watching without engaging. Does asking questions change that?

I remember practicing a question about observation methods, and I feel like the Active Observation Approach might fit here since it involves interaction.

I think the BA asking questions during job shadowing sounds like it could be the Contextual Inquiry Observation, but I'm not entirely sure.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused on this one. I know LACP is used for link aggregation, but I'm not sure how the passive mode affects when the packets are sent. I'll have to think this through carefully.
