Solution

A parameter is a characteristic of:

(a) Population (c) Probability distribution

So, the correct answer is not given in the options. A parameter is a value that describes a characteristic of an entire population, such as the population mean or the population standard deviation. Parameters are often used in probability distributions, which describe the likelihood of different outcomes in an experiment or event. However, a parameter is not a characteristic of a sample. A statistic would be a characteristic of a sample.
