I think the correct answer is A, not D. Don't we have to connect to the dedicated pool to query the stats. DB1 is in a dedicated pool

The answer is ok. tou runt the dmv over the database, no in the SQL Pool. To call this from Azure Synapse Analytics or Analytics Platform System (PDW), use the name sys.dm_pdw_nodes_db_partition_stats. The partition_id in sys.dm_pdw_nodes_db_partition_stats differs from the partition_id in the sys.partitions catalog view for Azure Synapse Analytics. This syntax is not supported by serverless SQL pool in Azure Synapse https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/relational-databases/system-dynamic-management-views/sys-dm-db-partition-stats-transact-sql?view=sql-server-ver15
