What is multistage sampling? Sampling scheme that combines several sampling methods.
What is systematic sampling? Sample drawn by selecting individuals systematically from a sampling frame.

What is control? 4 principles of experimental design Aspects of the experiment that we know may have an effect on the response but that are not the factors being studied.
What is randomize? 4 principles of experimental design Subjects to treatments to even out effects that we cannot control.
What is replicate? 4 principles of experimental design Over as many subjects as possible. Results form single subject are just anecdotes. Results from entire study with different to group, preferably from a different part of the population.
