What is the main difference between directed and undirected graphs?
What is the main difference between directed and undirected graphs?
- Directed graphs contain cycles, while undirected graphs do not contain cycles.
- In undirected graphs, nodes have labels, while in directed graphs, nodes do not have labels.
- Directed graphs have only one connected component, while undirected graphs can have multiple connected components.
- In directed graphs, edges have a direction, while in undirected graphs, edges do not have a direction. (correct)
What does it mean for nodes to be mutually reachable in a graph?
What does it mean for nodes to be mutually reachable in a graph?
- Nodes are mutually reachable if there is an edge between every pair of nodes.
- Nodes are mutually reachable if there is a path from each node to every other node.
- Nodes are mutually reachable if there is a cycle that passes through each node exactly once.
- Nodes are mutually reachable if there is a path from one node to another, regardless of the direction. (correct)
What is the purpose of determining subgraphs of mutually reachable nodes in a graph?
What is the purpose of determining subgraphs of mutually reachable nodes in a graph?
- To find the shortest path between any two nodes in the graph.

- To calculate the total number of nodes in the graph.
- To identify groups of nodes that are not connected in the graph. (correct)
