Why each option

Spearman's rank correlation is a non-parametric test used to assess the monotonic relationship between two ranked variables.

AOne-sample t-test

A one-sample t-test is a parametric test that assumes the data follows a normal distribution to compare a sample mean to a hypothesized population mean.

BTwo-way ANOVA
CCorrelation coefficient
DSpearman's rank correlationCorrect

Spearman's rank correlation coefficient is a non-parametric measure that assesses the strength and direction of a monotonic relationship between two ranked variables without assuming a specific data distribution like normality.
