discrete distribution is the distribution that can use the value of a whole number only while continuous distribution is the distribution that can assume any value between two numbers.
It sounds like the issue here is whether the data is continuous or discrete. If that is the case then the recording period is not of concern. If you are watching a Petri dish and counting the number of colonies on the dish each day then your data would be discrete. If one the other hand you are watching one colony on a Petri dish and measuring its largest dimension each day in centimetres and fractions of centimetres then your data would be continuous. Discrete data is essentially data that comes from the set of integers. Theoretically continuous data comes from the set of real numbers; in practice it comes from the set of rational numbers.

It is continuous, since there are unlimited numbers of shades between blonde, red, brown, and black.
discrete data can only be whole numbers whereas continuous can be fractions decimals don't necessary have to be counting numbers as we know them. 1,2,3...
The question, as stated, does not make sense. Numbers are not continuous - they are discrete.

ocean depth is a continuous or discrete variable?
Discrete variables must be countable and not negative. So no a negative number must be a continuous variable.
