Answer
# Answer:
C. The survey likely has bias because the people who could not answer differ from those who did answer.
# Brief Explanation:
The low - response rate and the fact that respondents were predominantly in one age group suggest non - response bias. Those who didn't respond may have different satisfaction levels or characteristics than those who did, skewing the results.
