Answer:

The answer is "random"

Explanation:

The individuals who are selected constitute a random sample of the population. A common example of how to choose a simple random sample is when you write people's names in separated pieces of paper, you put them all in a bag and extract each one until completing the sample size you desire. Each person would have the same chance of being chosen.
