In a recent report, a group of scientist claim that Americans are consuming an excessive amount of selenium in their diets. The national science foundation has started that the safe upper limit is 200 µg per day. In order to determine the extent of the problem in Plano, researchers divided the town into five regions based on economic levels and drew random samples of household from each region. They then interviewed in the door at the residence and measure their daily consumption of selenium. Identify sampling method and one possible source of bias.

The type of sampling method used in this scenario is stratified sampling. One possible source of bias could be response bias since some adults may not even know how many micrograms of selenium they are taking a day.
