A)The smaller population size ensures the sample is a biased estimate.
B)Each standard deviation is the square root of the variance.
C)Statmement (b)is true but only for prejudice (where N = 100).

Statement (a) is false because a smaller population size does not necessarily ensure a biased estimate. It depends on how the sample was chosen and whether it accurately represents the population.
Statement (b) is true, but it applies to both variables, not just prejudice.
Statement (c) is false because statement (b) applies to both variables.
Statement (d) is true based on the standard deviation values in the output. 
Therefore, the false statement is (a) and (c), making the answer E.
