In DBMS, the term 'table' refers to Attributes or records and Physical address of records.

A table is a collection of related data held in a structured format within a database.

1) Attributes or records:-

An attribute is a characteristic. In a database management system (DBMS), an attribute refers to a database component, such as a table. It also may refer to a database field. Attributes describe the instances in the row of a database.

A table consists of several records (row), each record can be broken down into several smaller parts of data known as Attributes.

2) physical address of records:-

In sequential organization records are physically stored in a specified order according to a key field in each record.

In the indexed-sequential files method, records are physically stored in sequential order on a magnetic disk or other direct access storage device based on the key field of each record.
