Answer:

C. convenience sample

Step-by-step explanation:

Convenience sampling is a type of non-probability sampling or non-random sampling which is any sampling method where some elements of the population have no chance of selection. The selection is left at the judgment of the interviewer or investigator and this non-randomness in the statistical sense implies that the interviewer or investigator do not fulfill some of the basic requirements or assumptions of the common standard methods for testing hypothesis and drawing inferences from the sample data to the target population
