Solutions

S1. Ans.(b)
Sol. Database Management System (DBMS) is a software application that can be used to create and maintain databases for various types of organizations. Some widespread DBMS applications are Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL and Microsoft Access.

S2. Ans.(a)
Sol. A relationship is an association among entities. We can use the Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) to represent an inter-relationship between the entities of a database.

S3. Ans.(b)
Sol. Foreign key is a field in one table that is used as the primary key in another table. Whenever a relationship is created between two tables, a common field acts as the primary key in the first table and the foreign key in the second table.

S4. Ans.(a)
Sol. Composite key is formed when two or more fields of a database table are combined together in order to uniquely identify the records stored in the table.

S5. Ans.(b)
Sol. If a table has more than one field that can be selected as the primary key, the field that is not selected as the primary key is called a candidate key.

S6. Ans.(d)
Sol. In DBMS, the commonly used normal forms are 1NF, 2NF, 3NF and BCNF.

S7. Ans.(b)
Sol. The interpreter is a computer program that helps in executing programs written in high-level languages without the need to compile them first.

S8. Ans.(b)
Sol. Since one table can have at the most one primary key to avoid duplicates in other columns of the table, unique key can be defined. We can make one or more unique keys in a single table.

S9. Ans.(d)
Sol. The text written within the H4 element has the same size as the normal plain text, whereas the text written within the H1, H2 and H3 elements are larger than the normal text. Text written within the H5 and H6 elements has smaller size than the normal text.

S10. Ans.(d)
Sol. In HTML, logical style tags specify that the enclosed text has a specific meaning, context, or usage. The <ABBR> is a logical style tag, which conveys to the Web browser that the text enclosed within this tag is an abbreviation.

S11. Ans.(b)
Sol. Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack is a type of attack that is carried out by using multiple computers. These DDoS attacks aim at targeting computer networks of an organisation, such as Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) and cable.

S12. Ans.(d)
Sol. In a message-switched network, a packet containing the entire message is transmitted over the network. It is a more expensive network.

S13. Ans.(c)
Sol. The client/server network contains a centralized server that manages and controls all the other nodes of the network. It is expensive as it requires NOS and a specialized server system. It is highly secure and prossesses good speed. However, it becomes congested when more clients simultaneously request for a service to the server.

S14. Ans.(b)
Sol. A data bus connects internal components to the motherboard and acts as a carrier for the data.

S15. Ans.(b)
Sol. Television is an example of simplex communication.
