Questions and Answers

Which normal form requires that there are no transitive dependencies?

  • Boyce-Codd normal form (BCNF)
  • Second normal form (2NF)
  • Third normal form (3NF) (correct)
  • First normal form (1NF)

    • What is the purpose of a dependency diagram?

  • To depict all relationships among table's attributes (correct)
  • To eliminate multi-valued attributes
  • To identify all dependencies
  • To identify the primary key

    • In the unnormalized dataset, why is it not in 1NF?

  • Because it has composite keys
  • Because it has transitive dependencies
  • Because it has repeating groups
  • Because it has multi-valued attributes (correct)
