Answer 1

The correct choice is (b) Create table . . . as Easy explanation - The ‘create table . . . as’ statement closely resembles the create view statement and both are defined by using queries. The main difference is that the contents of the table are set when the table is created, whereas the contents of a view always reflect the current query result.
