Final Answer : C, Explanation :  Random sampling involves selecting individual units from a population such that each unit has an equal chance of being selected. This ensures that the sample is representative of the population and reduces the likelihood of bias. It does not guarantee inclusion of individuals with unlisted phone numbers, a specific size or diversity, but rather aims to provide a fair representation of the population.
