A park ranger fears that a harmful fungus might be infecting bluegill panfish in the parks lake. A fisherman offers to help the ranger by catching a dozen bluegills from his favourite fishing spot on the lake and allowing the ranger to examine them for signs of the fungus. Would these 12 fish be a representative sample of the fish in the lake? Explain why or why not

Hey l need more info to aswer email me and we can get this done ;)

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: No, not random. This is not a representative sample because the fish were all from the same location and thus not sufficiently random. Fish in one part of the lake may have the fungus, while fish in the other part may not.

Step-by-step explanation:

They are only getting it from the park rangers favorite spot rather than a variety of spots.
