B Correct answer
Explanation

SQL is a declarative language, not procedural. In SQL, you specify what data you want (declarative), not how to retrieve it (procedural). The database engine determines the optimal execution plan. Procedural languages like C or Java require step-by-step instructions including loops and conditional logic.
