Option B is the answer. Kindly read the question "Which Operation can be performed" Join is an operation in database but not alter.

Correct, so DML operations cannot be performed (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE). ALTER is DDL. If you read the link you pasted carefully, you will find ALTER EXTERNAL TABLE statement. Answer is D
