Answer

$-Advantage:\:Easy\:to\:implement\:and\:select\:sample\:elements.\\-Disadvantage:\:Randomness\:is\:compromised.$

Work Step by Step

$The\:advantage\:of\:systematic\:sampling\:is\:the\:ease\:of\:selecting\:$ $the\:sample\:elements.\:The\:systematic\:sample\:is\:a\:sample\:$ $obtained\:by\:numbering\:each\:element\:in\:the\:population\:and\:then\:$ $selecting\:every\:third\:or\:fifth\:or\:tenth,\:etc.,\:number\:from\:$ $the\:population\:to\:be\:included\:in\:the\:sample.\:This\:is\:done\:after\:$ $the\:first\:number\:is\:selected\:at\:random.\\The\:main\:disadvantage\:of\:the\:systematic\:sampling\:is\:that\:$ $the\:randomness\:in\:the\:sample\:is\:no\:longer\:carried\:out\:and\:hence\:$ $it\:is\:compromised.$
