Answer:
Convenience sampling might not result in representative samples of the population, and this can induce errors in the results of the findings.
For example, if I want to find out about employment quality, I could go to an upscale restaurant and ask the people there about how they feel about their employment, and how much it pays. This type of convenience sample would probably result in favorable answers, with people finding job either satisfactory or high paying, or both, because those are the type of jobs that people who can afford expensive dinners tend to have. However, these findings would not be representative and would also be extremely biased.

E. Women, slaves, and foreigners were not allowed to participate.
Explanation:
Around 594 to 321 BC, in the Athenian polis, there was a democratic form of government. It is called the world's first democratic system. Any citizen had the right (and even the obligation) to participate in the work of the National Assembly. As it is noted by experts, in the heyday of Athenian democracy, about a third of citizens simultaneously held one or another public office.
Ancient Greek democracy was a limited democracy of only free citizens, leaving without the political rights slaves and women, who constituted the vast majority of the population; this ancient democracy was slave-owning democracy.
The national assembly met every 8-9 days, and several thousand people took part in it. Between the meetings of the ecclesia, the “council of five hundred,” was engaged in current affairs. Members of the council were elected by lot of citizens no younger than 30 years old. Litigation was heard in a "jury trial." It consisted of 6,000 people who were chosen by lot.
Answer: the contestants and observers thought the questioners were more knowledgeable than the contestants.
Explanation: Ross et al published a paper in the journal of personality and social psychology in 1977 titled
"Social Roles, Social Control, and Biases in Social-Perception Processes". They demonstrated that our actions and perceptions are determined by roles we have to play in interpersonal encounters; this is the biasing effect social roles have on performance.
In this instance the observers and the contestants perceived the questioners as having superior knowledge as the questioners were given latitude in how they frame the questions. Due to their social roles, the questioners were "the powerful" while the contestants and observers were "the powerless" playing out their roles and not taking into account the biasing effect.
If the roles were switched around, the outcome would still be the same with each group irrespective of their actual ability and knowledge.
