Answer:

Convenience sampling can yield biased search results, because it produces lack of information, so we can’t generalize results with statistical accuracy.

Explanation:

This technique is very common and consists of selecting a population sample that is accessible. That is, the individuals are selected because they are readily available, not because they were selected using a statistical criterion. This convenience generally represents greater operational ease and low sampling cost, but results in the inability to make general statements with statistical accuracy about the population.

This type of sampling is used when we don't have access to the complete list of individuals that make up the population (sampling frame), so we don't know the probability that each individual will be selected for the sample. The main consequence of this lack of information is that we can't generalize results with statistical accuracy.

The most obvious criticism of convenience sampling is sampling bias and that the sample is not representative of the entire population.

When is the universal theme of a story often revealed?

tangare [24]

The correct answer is the following: option a. The universal theme of a story is often revealed at the resolution of the story, when the reader can see how the story ends.

In literature the terms of "theme" and "universal theme" are commonly used. While the theme of a work of literature is defined as the main message revealed through a story, the universal theme is defined as a theme that applies to anyone and everywhere, that is relatable to a wide set of readers.

In both cases, to know the theme or the universal theme of a piece of literature work, it is needed to read through the whole story and analyze it to find out what the theme of it is, and if it can be a universal theme relatable to a big audience.

In John Steinbeck’s “The Turtle,” how does the turtle plant the wild oat seeds?

Anna11 [10]

The wild oat seeds were stuck to the turtle's front legs, so when it was rolled off the road, the seeds fell off and onto the ground. The turtle then started moving, and while it was doing that, it covered the seeds with ground, and thus it planted them. One day, those seeds would grow into wild oats thanks to the turtle.

Art is very valuable because most art is from a long time ago. The painter must be very important. The painter has probably died or is very old. If the painting was fake there would be a few hints. Each painter has a different way or painting or a different streak. Art is very important, not just because of the painter, but how long its been around. If the art is a replica, then it isn't valuable. Replicas aren't valuable because they aren't the same. HOPE THIS HELPS:)
