Why each option
The Incident table is extended from the Task table, meaning it inherits fields and properties from the Task table and builds upon them.
This is incorrect; the relationship is not a direct one-to-many from Incident to Task in that direction.
This is incorrect; the relationship is not many-to-many.
While Incident records have an INC number, this describes a field, not the structural relationship between the tables.
The Incident table is a concrete table with its own records, not a database view of the Task table.
In ServiceNow, the Task table is a base table that provides common fields and functionality (like state, priority, and assignment) for various service management applications. The Incident table extends the Task table, inheriting all its attributes and then adding fields specific to incident management, establishing an "is a" relationship where an Incident "is a" Task.
