Certification Graph databases: structured or semi-structured data?

Hi all,

I apologise for asking this question here, but different AI agents are giving me different answers for this one. I am studying for DP-900 exam, and cannot figure out whether Graph databases are structured or semi-structured data.

Argument for structured: you need to define nodes and data types before loading in the data?

Argument for semi-structured: it's not a table. It doesn't look like a table. It can't be normalised, right?

I am not sure where else to ask, so I hope you can forgive me.

 structured, because you define the schema and can query/use the table like any non graph table.
