snapshot
If represents a snapshot of a specific portion of the population, 
does this mean it represents well ?
Or does it mean it shows merely one aspect among many other aspects?

Thank you.=]If something* represents a snapshot of a specific portion of the population

Answer

In a context like this, "snapshot" means that it is not a complete or thorough analysis of a situation. It shows what is happening right now but doesn't provide a deep, detailed, or long-lasting analysis.

Answer

yes, one aspect among many(in the case u mentioned). few other examples-
to me, the divorce is a snapshot of what they had been through since their marriage. 
he was sent as a spy to obtain a snapshot of the actual situation.
quarreling sparks a snapshot of lovers reunion.

Answer

That depends on the purpose for which the snapshot has been taken. Would it representative for a whole nation? I don't think so.
