Jay Madden · Answer 1

Correct answer is (e) all of the above.

step-by-step explanation:

As for the option (a) and (d), you can't give information you don't have. When you are not aware of the diseases, you can not give information about it.

For option (b), when the interviewer did not record the information or record it incorrect, it can not be used for survey.

For option (c), when correct questions are not asked, you can't required answers for the survey.

Summation of the above will be sources of error for the survey.
