When a database is cloned, all of its objects, including tasks, are also cloned. However, cloned tasks are suspended by default and must be manually resumed by using the ALTER TASK command. This is to prevent the cloned tasks from running unexpectedly or interfering with the original tasks. Therefore, the reason why the tasks stop running after the cloning is because they are suspended by default (Option C).
Options A, B, and D are not correct because tasks can be cloned, the objects that the tasks reference are also cloned and do not need to be fully qualified, and the Architect does not need to alter the tasks on the cloned database, only resume them. References: The answer can be verified from Snowflake's official documentation on cloning and tasks available on their website. Here are some relevant links:

The warehouse MY_WH will only be active when there are results in the stream. This is because the task is created based on a stream, which means that the task will only be executed when there are new data in the stream. Additionally, the warehouse is set to auto_suspend - 60, which means that the warehouse will automatically suspend after 60 seconds of inactivity. Therefore, the warehouse will only be active when there are results in the stream. References:

This is the correct answer because it allows the company to ingest data from different regions using a storage integration for the external stage. A storage integration is a feature that enables secure and easy access to files in external cloud storage from Snowflake. A storage integration can be used to create an external stage, which is a named location that references the files in the external storage. An external stage can be used to load data into Snowflake tables using the COPY INTO command, or to unload data from Snowflake tables using the COPY INTO LOCATION command. A storage integration can support multiple regions and cloud platforms, as long as the external storage service is compatible with Snowflake12.
