Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
A factorial ANOVA is appropriate in this scenario since there are two factors being manipulated (type of music and type of pet food) and their interaction on the frequency of cat glares needs to be examined. This test will allow for the analysis of the main effects of each factor as well as the interaction between the two factors.
