After dropping an object, creating a new object with the same name results in which outcome?

• A. It creates a new version of the object.
• B. It restores the previous version.
• C. It fails with an error.
• D. It creates a clone of the object.

Answer: (A)

Dropping an object removes it from the catalog, freeing up its name. When you later create a new object with the same name, you are not restoring the old one; you’re introducing a brand-new object instance. That new creation gets its own metadata, including a fresh creation time and a new internal version tag. The previous version isn’t restored automatically unless you use time travel/undrop, which is a separate action. So the most accurate outcome is that creating the object again with the same name results in a new version of the object.
