Final Answer : A, Explanation :  Simple random sampling involves selecting subsets from the population with equal probability, ensuring that every part of the population has an equal chance of being included in the sample. Option B is incorrect because sampling from the most easily available segments of the population would not necessarily result in a representative sample. Option C is incorrect because it describes systematic sampling, not simple random sampling. Option D is incorrect because weights are not assigned in simple random sampling.
