Miracrown (miracrown):

Ok this question also works. It's a different type of sampling, can you tell me what type?

Miracrown (miracrown):

Remember I can't just provide you with an answer, but I will guide you to get to your answer.

Miracrown (miracrown):

I would classify this sampling as convenience, since we are using surveys from the company's chocolate bar .... Ok, so what matters in the question is: are the surveys accessible to everyone?

Miracrown (miracrown):

we only have data from enthusiasts who wanted to complete and return the survey, right? @72595210002

Miracrown (miracrown):

It can be difficult to determine whether things are completely unbiased though.

So A

Miracrown (miracrown):

This is a difficult one, but yes I would say it's representative, since it targets people who are consuming chocolate

Miracrown (miracrown):

returning the survey doesn't really weed anyone out so yup A!
