Answer:

Expression => A table column or built-in function but not analytical functions

Offset => It is optional and represents the physical offset from the current row in the table. If not specified, the default value is 1 and cannot accept negative numbers.

Default = > It is again optional. If not specified, then whenever the offset value goes out of the table bounds, then default null is returned.

Partition_By_clause = > Partition the query result set. It is again optional

Order By Clause = > Indicates how the data is ordered within the partition.
