Answer
# Brief Explanations:
Non - response bias occurs when those who do not respond to a survey are different in some meaningful way from those who do respond. In this case, an email - based anonymous online survey may have many department members who choose not to respond. Undercoverage refers to when part of the population is left out of the sampling frame, which is not the case here as all department members are emailed. Since it's anonymous, the risk of not being able to answer honestly is reduced. And no survey is completely free of bias.
# Answer:
A. The survey results are most at risk for nonresponse bias.
