The entire group from which sample is chosen is known as :

  • A.The population
  • B.The group
  • C.The mass
  • D.The people

Answer: A

The entire group is the population.

In research, the population (or universe) is the complete set of individuals or items that share the characteristic being studied and from which a sample is drawn, for example all the anganwadi workers of a district. The sample is the part actually studied.

'Group', 'mass' and 'people' are everyday words, not statistical terms. A population need not even consist of people, since it may be households, fields or garments.
