Classification as Population or Sample

a. Sample

b. Population

c. Population

d. Population

e. Sample

f. Population

g. Population

Explanation:

The population defines the whole group, while the sample is a part of the population.  This means that the sample is less than the population.  In statistical research, it is not always possible to study the whole population, unless it is not large.  Most times, only the sample is studied and conclusions are then drawn about the population size based on the characteristics discovered about the sample size.
