Step-by-step explanation:

option C and option E

Step-by-step explanation:

IMO, data gathering is the collection of variable of interest in an established systematic fashion that enables one to answer stated research questions, test hypotheses, and evaluate outcomes.

A.Finding the mean weight of cancer patients in a study

C.Asking voters whom they will vote for

This activity is an example of data gathering.  Variables are collected when the voters answers who they would vote for, in this process, data is gathered.

D.Using the results of a mathematical model to predict the next day's weather

These results to be used to predict the next day's weather was already gathered.

E.Weighing wildlife

During this process, fresh variables are collected while weighing the wildlife.
