Can an Object Owner grant object privileges in a regular schema?

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Only in managed access schemas
• D. Only for system objects

Answer: (A)

Ownership of an object gives you control over who can access it, and in a regular schema the object owner can grant object-level privileges to other roles. This is how access is delegated without transferring ownership. For example, the table owner can grant SELECT on that table to a role, and if desired, add WITH GRANT OPTION so that the receiving role can in turn grant that privilege to others. This behavior is a characteristic of regular schemas, not restricted to managed-access schemas, so the statement is true.
