1. cluster samples rely on clusters of participants;

multistage samples collect data from participants at different stage

Explanation:

Under clusters sampling, sampling plan involves the division of total population into groups (known as clusters) where simple random sample of the groups is selected; elements in each cluster are then sampled.

Multistage sample involve sampling in stages which becomes smaller in each stage. It could be a complex form of cluster sampling.
