What does it mean “dynamic disks support MBR and GPT”

basic-diskdynamic-diskgptmbrpartitioning

I'm confused "Do Dynamic disks have GPT and MBR or not?" while in this page, number 3 in table it says there is no partition in Dynamic disks against basic disks that have GPT and MBR partition styles on the other hand in this page of microsoft it says "Like basic disks, dynamic disks can use the MBR or GPT partition styles on systems that support both." which one? and what does it mean second quote exactly?

GPT and MBR are disk partitioning formats. They allow a single physical disk to be split into smaller partitions (volumes)

Basic disk is a plain simple GPT or MBR disk. Each partition on a basic disk spans a linear continuous region on the disk. Dynamic disk OTOH is an abstraction layer above that so it can be constructed on either GPT or MBR formats. It allows the creation of logical partitions that can be easily extended (expand in size), spanned multiple empty regions on a single or multiple physical disks or a software RAID volume for speed or data integrity...
