Qualitative Anything is a comparison without a scientific standard to measure against as in - "Man is larger than a tomato plant" - might be true - might not . Measure and weigh them both using scientific instruments such as a ruler and a bathroom scale to determine their quantities and you too shall know the truth as opposed to a subjective quality. C, you silly goose.

C. The sun is larger than Earth.
"Qualitative" deals with non-numerical, relative comparisons.
"Quantitative" deals with the numerical, precise comparisons.
C is the only answer that is a relative observation; all the others use numerical comparisons and are quantitative
