A database is a collection of tables. SHOW TABLES would show tables within a database. SHOW DATABASES would show all databases on an SQL server.

If you're talking about MySQL, you can do according to the link below, use the 'use' command to connect to a specific database, like use myDatabase; show tables; https://alvinalexander.com/blog/post/mysql/list-tables-in-mysql-database
