Answer:

A) Sample bias

Step-by-step explanation:

If a sample of 100 participants includes 20 men and 80 women, then the sample is biased. Women account for;

(80/100)*100 = 80% of the total participants while men only for 20%.

The sample does not represent the entire population in fair proportions hence the sample is biased
