    a. The number of calories/serving is a quantitative variable.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    A categorical variable, also called nominal variable, is a variable that has two or more categories, but there is no intrinsic ordering to the categories. property.

    A quantitative variable is a variable which can have some numerical value i. e. it can be represented in numbers. Arithmetic operations can also be performed on quantitative variables.

    The number of calories and grams of fat can take numerical values, that makes them a quantitative variable.

    The variables "hot/cold" and the measurement of "meets daily nutritional requirements for iron" are categorical variables, they do not take numerical values.

    Option A is the only correct option
