Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
In order for a survey to accurately generalize to the entire population, it is important that the respondents be selected randomly in order to avoid any bias in the results. Additionally, everyone in the target population must have an equal chance of being selected in order to ensure that the sample is representative of the overall population. The percentage of the population sampled or the number of individuals sampled does not necessarily determine the accuracy or representativeness of the survey.
