Explanation

The correct answer is B because it correctly states that the parent can indeed be a snapshot copy and that it only copies detached snapshots, maintaining its own Retention Policy. Options A and D incorrectly state that the parent cannot be a snapshot copy, while option C incorrectly claims that it can copy both attached and detached snapshots and inherits the parent's Retention Policy.
