A stratified sample is a type of probability sample where the population is divided into subgroups (or strata) based on certain characteristics, and then random samples are taken from each stratum. This method ensures that each stratum is represented proportionally in the overall sample, making it a more accurate representation of the population. The other options listed are not probability samples, as they do not involve random selection from the population.
