Question Answer
Is a binary tree a static or dynamic data structure? Dynamic.
What is the maximum number of child nodes each parent node can have? Two, hence why it is called a binary tree.
What is the first node called? The root node.
What are sibling nodes? Nodes which share the same parent node.
What is the problem with removing parent nodes from a binary tree? And what is a solution? All nodes below the deleted item will be lost, in order to maintain the structure of the tree the 'deleted' item can be flagged as deleted with a boolean value and thus will be ignored by any tree traversal algorithms.
