Why each option
The `[sys_db_object]` table is the master table in ServiceNow that contains a record for every table defined within the database instance.
`[sys_master_db]` is not the correct name for the system dictionary table in ServiceNow.
The `[sys_db_object]` table in ServiceNow functions as the system dictionary, storing metadata for all tables in the database, including their names and properties, which is essential for the platform's data structure management.
`[sys_master_object]` is not the designated table for storing metadata about all database tables in ServiceNow.
`[sys_object_db]` is not the accurate name for the master table containing records for each database table in ServiceNow.
