Answer 2

In Statistics,the disparity between the actual results or outcome and the estimated results is called statistical error.Hence,the correct answer is option b) or statistical error.

Explanation:

In any statistical research,the main objective of the researcher is to replicate the actual findings with the estimated or predictive outcome.The estimated or predictive results represents or constitute the accurate reflection of the goal of any statistical study or research.Hence,a researcher is primarily seeking to establish or find the estimated predictions about the topic.Now,due to many practical reasons or constraints,the actual results of the study might not match the estimated outcomes which includes sampling errors,errors in sample selection,deficiencies in statistical data collection,difficulties of obtaining accurate and relevant data or information,lack of credible data sources,missing data,lack of adequate resources to conduct data collection process and so on.Statistical research involves intense primary field work for data and information collection related to the study topic.However,these are some of the practical difficulties faced by a typical researcher resulting in a gap between his/her actual findings and the true estimations about the results,which constitutes statistical error.Therefore,higher the practical difficulties of conducting any study,higher will be the statistical error.
