3. False: simple random sample are data taken by chance. Selecting every fifth name cannot be selected consecutively by chance.

4. true: A parameter are values representing the entire population.

5. experimental study: in a research, observational study is what you see, but experimental study is a control study in which the effects is seen by applying the research on some member.
