Marin · Answer 1

C, some of the apple trees in the farmer's orchard.

Step-by-step explanation:

A sample is only a few out of the population (the population in this case would be all the apple trees), so only some of the apple trees would be the sample.

Aliyah Vaughan · Answer 2

The answer is c because it's asking for a sample which is a estimate of range for apples in this case.
