Random sampling prevents any emergent patterns inherent in a non-random selection process. Second, random samples of the population provide the widest representation of the population as a whole (given that the sample is large enough). This is why there is emphasis and the quantity of the study group-- the larger the population being analyzed the more accurate a representation it will be during the course of the study.
It can be but it is not simple random sampling.

Random Sampling
They include: Simple random sampling, Systematic sampling, Stratified sampling, Quota sampling, and Cluster sampling.
There are several types of random sampling, with the most common being simple random sampling, stratified sampling, cluster sampling, and systematic sampling. Simple random sampling gives each member of the population an equal chance of being selected. Stratified sampling involves dividing the population into subgroups and sampling from each subgroup. Cluster sampling selects entire groups or clusters, while systematic sampling involves selecting members at regular intervals from a randomly ordered list.
You are correct; convenience sampling is not random sampling.

Simple Random Sample Stratified Random Sampling Cluster Sampling Systematic Sampling Convenience Sampling
In a stratified sample, the sampling proportion is the same for each stratum. In a random sample it should be but, due to randomness, need not be.
There are many such methods: cluster sampling, stratified random sampling, simple random sampling.Their usefulness depends on the circumstances.
Compare the efficiency of simple random sampling with systematic random sampling for estimating the population mean and give your comments.
No.
That's a random question
