Question 2
Question
2) The word “entity” in the ER model corresponds to a table.
Question 3
Question
3) The Crow’s Foot model is less implementation-oriented than the Chen model.
Question 4
Question
4) The ER diagram represents the conceptual database as viewed by the end user.
Question 5
Question
5) The ER model refers to a specific table row as an entity instance.
Question 6
Question
6) In both the Chen and Crow’s Foot models, an entity is represented with a rectangle containing the entity’s name.
Question 7
Question
7) The ER model refers to a specific table row as an entity occurrence.
Question 8
Question
8) Attributes are types of entities.
Question 9
Question
9) In the original Chen model, each attribute is represented using an oval with the
attribute name connected to the entity with a line.
Question 10
Question
10. Software vendors have adopted the Chen representation because of its compact
representation.
Question 11
Question
11) Attributes have a domain that specifies the data type of the attribute.
Question 12
Question
12) Attributes cannot share a domain.
Question 13
Question
13) In an ER diagram, primary keys are usually bolded.
Question 14
Question
14. Ideally, a primary key is composed of several attributes.
Question 15
Question
15. A composite identifier is a primary key composed of more than one attribute.
Question 16
Question
16. All attributes are either simple or composite.
Question 17
Question
17) All simple attributes are also single-valued.
Question 18
Question
18) In the Chen model, a multivalued attribute is connected to the owning entity
with a double line.
Question 19
Question
19) The DBMS can easily handle multivalued attributes.
Question 20
Question
20) Derived attributes are stored in a special database table.
Question 21
Question
21) A relationship is identified by a name that describes the relationship.
Question 22
Question
22) Cardinality expresses the minimum and maximum number of entity occurrences associated with one occurrence of the related entity.
Question 23
Question
23) In Chen notation, there is no way to represent cardinality.
Question 24
Question
24) Connectivities and cardinalities are established by business rules.
Question 25
Question
25) A weak relationship exists if the primary key of the related entity contains at least one primary key component of the parent entity.
Question 26
Question
26) You should always load data from the 1 side of a 1:M relationship.
Question 27
Question
27) A weak entity has a primary key that is partially or totally derived from the parent entity in the relationship
Question 28
Question
28. The existence of a mandatory relationship indicates that the minimum cardinality is 0 or 1 for the mandatory entity.
Question 29
Question
29) Relationships operate only in one direction.
Question 30
Question
30. A recursive relationship is one in which a relationship can exist between occurrences of the same entity set
