Gregor Mendel was an Austrian monk in 1866‚ who studied how traits were passed using pea plants. From his studies of inheritance‚ he created three laws of inheritance: the law of dominance‚ the law of segregation‚ and the law of independent assortment. He called genes ‘’factors’’

Ans.1: Non-Probability Sampling: When the units of a sample are chosen so that each unit in the population does not have a calculable non-zero probability of being selected in the sample‚ this is called Non-Probability Sampling. Also‚ Non-probability sampling is a sampling technique where the samples are gathered in a process that does not give all the individuals in the population equal chances of being selected. In contrast with probability sampling‚ non-probability sample is not a product

Even if the sample size is more than 1000‚ we cannot always use the normal approximation to binomial. Solution: If a sample is n>30‚ we can say that sample size is sufficiently large to assume normal approximation to binomial curve. Hence the statement is false. #2 A salesperson goes door-to-door in a residential area to demonstrate the use of a new Household appliance to potential customers.
