d. unless the nature of the questions would raise the level of risk to more than minimal for adolescents, the research would still qualify for expedited review.

Explanation:

According to the Institutional Review Board guideline, if a study poses not more than minimal risk for it participants and meets other requirement such as not including protected classes or vulnerable populations, and not using intentional deception, the study will still qualify for expedited review. However, when vulnerable individuals are involved, a full review is required.
