    D) college students

    The college students are best describes the population

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Explanation:-

    Introduction:-

    The outcome of a statistical experiment may be recorded either as a numerical value or as a descriptive representation.

    Example:-

    when a pair of dice are tossed and the sum of the numbers on the faces is the outcome of interest, we record a numerical value. If the students of a certain school are given blood tests and the type of blood is of interest, we record a numerical value.

    In particular study, the number of possible observations may be small, large but finite or infinite.

    Example : - 1

    In the classification of blood types we can only have as many observations as there are students in the school.

    Therefore the results are finite number of observations.

    Example : - 2

    If we could toss a pair of dice indefinitely and record the sums occur, we would obtain an infinite set of values.

    Population:-

    The total of observations which we are concerned, whether this number is finite or infinite, this is called the population

    The number of observations in the population is defined to be the size of the population.

    Example : - If there are 600 students in the school that we classified according to blood group, we say that the population of size is 600.

    Sample: - A sample is subset of a population

    Therefore in given data

    The college students are best describes the population

    Female college students, part - time college students, and female part-time college students are samples it will come from population
