In a probability sample, each unit has the same probability of being included in the sample. Equivalently, given a sample size, each sample of that size from the population has the same probability of being selected. This is not true for non-probability sampling.
In probability sampling,every item in the population has a known chance of being selected as a member.In non-probability sampling, the probability that any item in the population will be selected for a sample cannot be determined.
With a probabilistic method, each member of the population has the same probability of being selected for the sample. Equivalently, given a sample size, every sample of that size has the same probability of being the sample which is selected. With such a sample it is easier to find an unbiased estimate of common statistical measures. None of this is true for non-probabilistic sampling.
I believe you meant to ask: What distinguishes a random sample from a non random sample? A random sample means the selection or sampling from the population is by chance. Looking at the data, one might not be able to tell if the sample is random or selective. Consider a marketing survey which is included everytime you buy an item online. Random or non-random? It is a survey of recent customers, and probably a pretty good one. But it is not a random selection of all customers who have made purchases with clients.

A sample of a population that is based on factors other than randomness.

Sampling techniques in researching involves to types of sampling. The probability sampling and the non-probability sampling. Simple random is an example of probability sampling.

It is quite likely that the sample is not representative of the population and so while statistical conclusion may be valid for the sample, they may not apply to the population.
Probability sampling is used to select a sample from a population in such a way that every individual or element in the population has a known and non-zero chance of being selected. This method ensures that the sample is representative of the population, allowing for generalizations and statistical inferences to be made with greater validity and accuracy. Probability sampling techniques include simple random sampling, stratified sampling, cluster sampling, and systematic sampling.

Consecutive sampling is very similar to convenience sampling except that it seeks to include ALL accessible subjects as part of the sample. This non-probability sampling technique can be considered as the best of all non-probability samples because it includes all subjects that are available that makes the sample a better representation of the entire population.
Non probability sampling is where the samples are not selected randomly.
the difference is just that non-probability sampling does not involve random selection, but probability sampling does.
