Which of the following is not an action query? A. add B. delete C. make-table D. update

Here is a brief explanation of each option:

• Add queries add new rows to a table. For example, the following query adds a new row to the Customers table:

sql
INSERT INTO Customers (CustomerID, FirstName, LastName) VALUES (1000, 'John', 'Doe');

• Delete queries remove rows from a table. For example, the following query removes the row with the CustomerID of 1000 from the Customers table:

sql
DELETE FROM Customers WHERE CustomerID = 1000;

• Update queries change the data in existing rows in a table. For example, the following query changes the FirstName of the customer with the CustomerID of 1000 to ‘Jane’:

sql
UPDATE Customers SET FirstName = 'Jane' WHERE CustomerID = 1000;

• Merge queries combine data from two tables into a single table. For example, the following query merges the Customers table with the Orders table into a new table called CustomerOrders:

sql
MERGE INTO CustomerOrders AS CO
USING Customers AS C
ON CO.CustomerID = C.CustomerID
WHEN MATCHED THEN
UPDATE SET CO.FirstName = C.FirstName, CO.LastName = C.LastName
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
INSERT (CustomerID, FirstName, LastName) VALUES (C.CustomerID, C.FirstName, C.LastName);
