Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

In MySQL, DML (Data Manipulation Language) commands are used to manipulate data within tables. These include INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE. The command ALTER is not a DML command; it belongs to DDL (Data Definition Language) and is used to modify the structure of a table, such as adding or removing columns. Therefore, ALTER is not categorized as a DML command.
