Explanation

In Databricks, the Data Explorer provides a table details page that includes an 'Owner' field explicitly identifying who owns the table. This is the direct and correct way to find the table owner. Option A (Permissions tab) shows who has access, not who owns the table. Option B claims all options work, which is incorrect since cloud storage solutions (Option D) do not surface Databricks table ownership metadata. Option E is incorrect because ownership information is readily accessible via Data Explorer.
