Answer 1

Explanation:

The answer has to be every member of the group being questioned to be a census. So B for certain is not a census. Anything that a smaller group than the entire population is not a census.

That lets out C as well.

Your answer is A and D.

Every student is questioned about the mascot.

Every employee is questioned about the uniform color.
