Explanation

Population.

A population refers to the entire group of individuals, objects, or events that share a common characteristic or set of characteristics and are of interest to a researcher. In statistics, a population is the set of all measurements or data points that one wishes to analyze, and it includes all the individuals, items, or events that meet the criteria for inclusion in the study.

In contrast, a sample is a subset of the population that is selected for study. It is chosen to represent the entire population, as it is not feasible or practical to study the entire population.
