The population in this scenario is all 225 players in Maritza's softball league. The sample is the 45 players that Maritza chose to ask about playing basketball.

Population size = 225 players
Sample size = 45 players

Maritza chose 45 players out of the total population of 225 players to ask about playing basketball. This sample size of 45 is a subset of the larger population of softball players in the league.
