Question
- A. It simplifies the data analysis process
- B. It ensures all necessary data is collected systematically
- C. It reduces the time taken to collect data
- D. It eliminates the need for a control group
Answer
The correct answer is It ensures all necessary data is collected systematically.
Explanation
The correct option is It ensures all necessary data is collected systematically. It ensures all necessary data is collected systematically is correct because it directly matches the approved learning objective to collect data with understanding of accuracy, sample size, procedures, control groups and reliability. This belongs to Numerical skills within Numerical skills, so the answer must stay focused on the geographical process, evidence, place, or impact named by the curriculum. The other options are weaker because they move away from Numerical skills, reverse the geographical relationship, or make a broader claim than the objective supports.
Common mistake
Misunderstanding Sample Size Importance
Students often believe that a larger sample size does not significantly affect the reliability of data collection.
Emphasize that a larger sample size generally increases the reliability of results by reducing the impact of anomalies and providing a more accurate representation of the population.
