The correct answer according to ed is D.) RESPONSE SET

D. Response set

There are many possible ways in which a survey might not accurately reflect the reality of a situation. One case is that of response set bias. This is prevalent in surveys that involve self-reporting, and which provide a predetermined set of options as possible answers. It is usually caused by the way the experiment is conducted, and in particular, by the way the sentences are designed and structured. If a survey is answered inaccurately, it has the potential of affecting the validity of the study.

answer: inference

explanation:

an inference can be understood as a conclusion to which a person is able to get based on reasoning. it is the same as a deduction, a guess, an assumption.   in the sentence presented, the conjunction "but" gives the readers an idea of contrast, and, therefore, allows them to induce that despite the opponent's characteristics, andrea had something different that made her win.
