Final answer:
The statement that metadata owned by the system can be changed is generally true, provided one has the necessary system privileges to do so. The ability to change metadata is subject to user roles and permissions within the system. The given statement is true.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question pertains to whether metadata owned by the system can be changed. The statement, as written, is potentially ambiguous because the ability to change metadata often depends on the system privileges one has and the specific system context. In general, system metadata, which is data about other data managed by a system or application, can often be changed by users or processes that have the necessary permissions or roles.
therefore True, with the caveat that the user or process must have the appropriate permissions.
Correcting False Statements About Metadata:
- If the statement was to claim 'Only the system can change its metadata', the corrected statement would be: 'Users with sufficient privileges can also change system metadata.'
- If the statement was 'All users can change metadata', it would be corrected to: 'Only users with sufficient permissions can change metadata.'
- If the statement was 'Metadata cannot be altered once created', the correction would be: 'Metadata can be altered by users or systems with the appropriate privileges.'.
