The correct answer is B. Peremptory challenge.

A peremptory challenge allows an attorney to exclude a potential juror without needing to provide a reason. Each side in a trial has a limited number of these challenges they can use to help shape the jury composition. Other options mentioned involve different legal procedures or contexts that do not specifically pertain to excluding a juror directly.
