Answer 1

A question is given as follows:

“Which type of artificial sweetener do you think is the least unhealthy?”

We are supposed to identify the flaw involved in the above question and rewrite the question following the survey guidelines.

1) The above question is an open-ended question which is not giving any list of artificial sweeteners.

2) The question itself is biased. This question is indirectly indicating that artificial sweeteners are unhealthy.

The given question can be reconstructed as follows:

“Among the following artificial sweeteners which do you think is least unhealthy:

 Sucaryl, Cologran, Aclame, Sweet’N Low”
