In an Entity-Relationship (ER) model, suppose ? is a many-to-one relationship from entity set E1 to entity set E2. Assume that E1 and E2 participate totally in ? and that the cardinality of E1 is greater than the cardinality of E2. Which one of the following is true about ??

In an Entity-Relationship (ER) model, suppose ? is a many-to-one relationship from entity set E1 to entity set E2. Assume that E1 and E2 participate totally in ? and that the cardinality of E1 is greater than the cardinality of E2. Which one of the following is true about ?? Correct Answer Every entity in E1 is associated with exactly one entity in E2.

As the number of entries in E1 is greater than the number of entries in E2

As participation is total,

R is an onto function from E1 to E2

As participation of both the entity sets is total and number of entries in E1 is greater than E2, R is an onto function.

: :  Partial/Optional participation

: : Total/Mandatory participation or Existence dependency
