Explanation / Answer

Answers 1,2,3,4 are correct as the points selected give the correct definition of the statement.

In question 5, we should choose 4th option as the characteristics of sample observed can only be generalized to the similar sample. E.g. we can study about the statistics of marks obtained by 10 different types of students taken in one sample. The result may mot be valid if we study the same statistics for a single category of students.
