Solution

The characteristic that best describes a tourist from the options provided is:

b. The tourist is a member of a transient and highly mobile population.

This is because tourists are typically individuals who travel from their usual environment to a different location for a temporary period, making them a highly mobile population. The other options are not universally true. For example, not all countries measure tourists as a category of immigration, and it's not always easy to measure tourists using social surveys. Additionally, individual tourists typically have little influence on the price of tourism products.
