The feature that makes the sample representative of the population is the choice of the contact mode (telephone landline or cellular phone line) with proportions representative of the ages of the subjects to be represented.
Step-by-step explanation:
The feature that makes the sample representative of the population is the choice of the contact mode (telephone landline or cellular phone line) with proportions representative of the ages of the subjects to be represented.
Older people tend to manage with landline phones, while younger people tend to have no landline phones but cell phone. Both groups must be proportionally represented to be representative of an adult population (18 years or older).
