Statistically the results will not be scientifically valid if the sample size is too small.

Find a group to represent the universe
A control group is needed to see how the sample responds under normal conditions
this is brief, but a census gathers data from the whole group/poulation, wheras a sample investigation on takes a small part of the group/poulation, a sample
The sample space is {m, a, t, h, e, i, c, s} which, curiously, is also the sample space for choosing a letter from my user name!
Every accident/incident is followed by investigation.
random sample or probability sample
self selected
It should reduce the sample error.
bias
The sample space is {p, r, o, b, a, i, l, t, e, s}
If the sample is homogeneous, then half of its volume has half of its mass and half of its weight.
Ignition initiated this fire. What initiated the investigation? Have you been initiated?
Sampling gives good insight of the choosen sample
The sample size determines the accuracy of results in an experiment
