Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

C- Survey every tenth student entering the school one morning.

This is because the survey is related to the entire student population of a school as they want to know which type of speaker the students prefer to invite to an assembly.

Reasons for incorrect options:

Option A is not true as it will relate to a mall survey. Option B is also incorrect as it will only survey few students of a student council that cannot represent a whole population. Option D is related to basketball survey, it has nothing to do with any speaker chosen for an assembly.
