I feel like this key could work internally, but I’m not confident about that. I wish I had reviewed more examples!

I’m leaning towards option D, but I vaguely remember something about keys being valid for longer than a single session.

I remember practicing a question about service STS tokens, and I feel like this could be one, but I can't recall the specifics.

I remember learning about these in class. I think the key is only valid for a single session, so I'll select option D.

I'm not sure about this one. The key could be for a service or a temporary session. I'll have to think it through more carefully.

Hmm, this looks like an AWS Access Key. I'm pretty sure it belongs to a user account, so I'll go with option A.

Okay, let me see. If it's a service STS token, that would mean it's only valid for internal use, right? I'll go with option C.

I think I remember that we need to look for the join conditions between Dept1_Parts and Dept2_Parts, but I'm not entirely sure how to apply them here.

I feel like RepositoryService was mentioned for a different use case. I just can't remember if it's relevant here!

A) The key belongs to a user account because it is used for authentication purposes.

Wait, is this a trick question? Like, what if the key is actually just a string of random characters and not a real AWS Access Key at all? *chuckles*

Single-session use? Nah, that's not how Access Keys work. This one's good for the long haul.
