Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -You can use an asterisk character, *, to retrieve all the columns. In queries where all the data is found in one table, the FROM clause is where we specify the name of the table from which to retrieve rows. In other articles we will use it to retrieve rows from multiple tables.

Detailed explanation-2: -An SQL SELECT statement retrieves records from a database table according to clauses (for example, FROM and WHERE ) that specify criteria. The syntax is: SELECT column1, column2 FROM table1, table2 WHERE column2=’value’;

Detailed explanation-3: -The LIKE operator is used in a WHERE clause to search for a specified pattern in a column. There are two wildcards often used in conjunction with the LIKE operator: The percent sign (%) represents zero, one, or multiple characters. The underscore sign ( ) represents one, single character.
