An active transformation can change the number of rows passing through it from source to target by eliminating rows that do not meet conditions in the transformation. An expression transformation with a filter condition of port A > port B will result in 1 row passing through to the target, as only the row where the value in port A (3) is greater than the value in port B (2) meets the condition. A lookup transformation with the given source and lookup table will result in 2 rows populating the target table, as both rows in the source table meet the join condition to rows in the lookup table.

Expression transformation:
Look at picture below to understand the scenario. You have two port as A and B with values given in picture. In between there is expression transformation with one filter condition given as PORT A> PORTB. So you are supposed to tell that "how many rows will be there in target after each row passing through filter condition ?

Lookup transformation:
You have a source and lookup table columns as given in picture. In case of performing lookup how many rows will get filtered? In other word explain all the rows populating to target table?
