Answer:

Sampling Error

Step-by-step explanation:

When the researcher randomly selected 200 people, he is creating an sample or subset from the population, that would be all the people in the earth. The error obtained was product of the fact that the analysis he made was estimated from the sample and not the whole population. There is no other mentioned factor that could cause an error, so the answer would be a sampling Error.
