A
can determine causal events.
B
can be treated as a type of descriptive research.
C
attempt to establish causes.
D
rely on the same research procedures.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Causal comparative and experimental research both attempt to establish cause effect relationship and both involve comparison. But there are difference between two methods. In experimental design researcher select a random sample and then randomly divide the sample into two or more groups.

Detailed explanation-2: -The causal-comparative method of research and the correlational method are similar in some respects. Neither method involves the manipulation of an independent variable, i.e., both methods are nonexperimental. In both methods the relationship between an inde-pendent and dependent variable are studied.

Detailed explanation-3: -Causal-comparative research is a methodology used to identify cause-effect relationships between independent and dependent variables. Researchers can study cause and effect in retrospect. This can help determine the consequences or causes of differences already existing among or between different groups of people.
