Answer:Selection bias

Explanation:Selection bias refers to selecting individuals in a way that a proper randomisation is not achieved which makes the result not representative of the whole population. This is also called selection effect.This usually occurs when a researcher chooses only participants that will support the idea he has in mind about the variable of interest that they are researching. For example if someone is researching the effect of healthy food on particular population but instead of selecting participants randomly, a researcher goes to a health food market ,vegetable places and gyms. Then a researcher ends up concluding that healthy eating is crucial within this population.

This is wrong because a researcher only chose places that were convenient to this research.

kolezko [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Human relationship to nature depends on how hospitable nature is to our everyday lives. As long as nature does not affect our everyday lives in a significant matter, humans will continue to ignore its effects and do what they want. The moment nature begins to drastically change the way we live, and begin making our everyday lives difficult or dangerous then that is when the human relationship to nature will begin changing. By then humans will have a deeper respect for nature and try to develop solutions to be able to protect our planet so that we can go back to the hospitable and easy livestyles that we had before.
