Answer: A

Explanation:

A stage is a named location in Snowflake that can store files for data loading and unloading. A stage can be internal or external, depending on where the files are stored.

The query in the question uses the LIST function to list the files in a stage named FILEROWS. The function returns a table with various columns, including FILE_ROW_NUMBER, which is the line number of the file in the stage.

Therefore, the query can be interpreted as listing the files in a stage named FILEROWS and showing

the line number of each file in the stage.
