They do not. Population size does not affect the sample size. The variability of the characteristic that you are trying to measure and the required accuracy will determine the appropriate sample size.

When using the distribution of sample mean to estimate the population mean what is the benefit of using larger sample sizes?

The variance decreases with a larger sample so that the sample mean is likely to be closer to the population mean.


What is a pipe fitting that join a smaller to a larger pipe what is it called?

You would have to get the larger sizes cuppler with a reducer to the smaller size and then join it together


What kinds of populations are affected by genetic drift?

Genetic drift occurs in all finite populations. However the effects of drift are more pronounced in smaller populations than in large ones. Meanwhile, even though they are more present in smaller populations, the drifting is more likely to occur in larger populations because of the larger number of different genetic combinations present. Throughout evolution of populations, genetic drifting effects all types of population sizes, though it is more likely in larger populations but more present in smaller populations.


Is an asteroid smaller than mars?

Asteroids can be different sizes, so they can be larger or smaller than Mars.

How does size of target population affect sample size?

The size of the target population directly influences the required sample size for accurate representation and statistical validity. Larger populations generally require larger sample sizes to capture the diversity and variability within the population. However, after a certain point, increasing the population size has a diminishing effect on the required sample size, as the necessary sample size plateaus. This is due to the law of diminishing returns in sampling, where a sufficiently large sample can provide reliable estimates regardless of further population increases.

How does the size of the sun compare to the sizes of the stars?

Most stars are smaller than the Sun, but those that are larger can be a lot larger.


Does the planets go smaller the farther it goes?

the planets do not get smaller the father they go... they range from all different sizes some are larger than get smaller, some are smaller then get larger...look it up at your library~ it is very interesting


Is it desirable to have a two sample test with equal sizes?

If they are not matched pairs, it does not really matter. If the combined sample size is fixed (because of costs, say) then it is better to have a larger sample where more variability is expected.
