Answer:

It must be large

Random

Step-by-step explanation:

For a sample to represent a population accurately, it must be large and contain random sample spaces.

A population is a group of organism of the same species living in a particular place where they can reproduce.

  • A sample must be representative of a given population
  • By so doing, sampling space must be large so as to properly represent the species there in.
  • The sampling must be done without any bias i.e. it must be randomly carried out.
