Explanation:

A statistical question anticipates a variety of answers from a group. A non - statistical question has a single answer.

• "What kind of dog does Bruno have?" has one specific answer (e.g., a Labrador), so it is non - statistical.
• "What is Clara's brother's name?" has one specific answer (e.g., John), so it is non - statistical.
• "What time did Javed go to sleep?" has one specific answer (e.g., 10:00 PM), so it is non - statistical.
• "How many siblings do you have?" can have different answers (e.g., 0, 1, 2) depending on the person, so it is statistical.
• "What time do you go to sleep?" can have different answers (e.g., 9:00 PM, 11:00 PM) depending on the person, so it is statistical.
• "How many pets do you have?" can have different answers (e.g., 0, 1, 3) depending on the person, so it is statistical.

Answer:

• Statistical: How many siblings do you have?, What time do you go to sleep?, How many pets do you have?
• Non - statistical: What kind of dog does Bruno have?, What is Clara's brother's name?, What time did Javed go to sleep?
