Consider the research question: "Does excessive drinking occur in animals other than rats ?"

This would be considered a good research question because

1. Asks a question
2. Focusses on a relationship between 2 variables
3. Can be empirically tested
4. Is stated specifically enough to specify the variables being tested and to aid in the design of the study

The question presents a research prompt and asks which features make it a good research question. 
Option 1: All of the above says the question asks a question. Indeed, a good research question is the starting point of inquiry and frames the investigation.
Option 2: It focuses on a relationship between two variables. Here, the inquiry contrasts excessive drinking across different animals (species) and thus involves variables such as level of drinking and animal type, which centers on a relation between variables rather than a mere description.
Option 3: It can be empirically tested. The question is testable through observation or experimentation by measuring drinking behavior across various animal groups and collecting data.
Option 4: It is stated specifically enough to specify the variables being tested and to aid in the design of the study. The wording identifies the phenomenon (excessive drinking) and the comparison group (animals other than rats), providing a basis for operational definitions and study design.
Together, each statement identifies a core criterion of a well-formed research question, and taken collectively they justify that the correct choice is All of the above.
