Answer:

Population - Sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the exercise suggests, in this particular survey taken at the school, population sampling is the process used. The population is used to describe the whole group of individuals, whereas the sampling is the percentage of students picked for the survey. Sampling is used when it is very hard to test or ask the whole of the population. Therefore, population sample was the option used by the school.
