Why each option

SQL*Loader supports loading into multiple tables in one control file and can generate sequential key values using the SEQUENCE function.

AIt can load into multiple tables using the same load statement.Correct

SQL*Loader allows multiple INTO TABLE clauses within a single control file, enabling data to be distributed and loaded into several tables in one operation.

BIt can generate unique sequential key values in specified columns.Correct

SQL*Loader provides the SEQUENCE function in the control file specification that generates unique, incrementing numeric values for designated columns during the load.

CIt can load data from external files by using the direct path only.

SQL*Loader supports both conventional path loading and direct path loading, so restricting it to direct path only is incorrect.

DIt can load data into one table at a time.

Because SQL*Loader supports multiple INTO TABLE clauses, it is not limited to loading one table at a time.

EIt can load data from external files by using the conventional path only.

SQL*Loader supports both conventional path and direct path loading methods, not conventional path only.
