Correct answer: B
Probability sampling involves random selection where every member has a known chance of being selected. Non-probability sampling relies on non-random criteria. Systematic sampling (A) and Simple random sampling (B) are probability methods. Snowball sampling (C) and Purposive sampling (D) rely on researcher judgment or existing networks, making them non-probability techniques.
