What is a “Single answer survey question” and how does it work in a Survey/questionnaire?

Single answer survey questions are some of the most common questions one can find in online surveys. Essentially, respondents get to choose a “single answer” from a list of answers for the question at hand. These are extremely versatile survey questions, and can be used in almost any scenario, in any context.
