Solution

The correct answer is A. Type 2 error.

Here's why:

In hypothesis testing, a Type 2 error occurs when the null hypothesis is not rejected when it is false. This means that we fail to accept the alternative hypothesis when it is true.

In the context of the question, the null hypothesis is not rejected when the alternative hypothesis is true. This is the definition of a Type 2 error. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Type 2 error.
