1. In the school's student database, which is an example of the MOST APPOIATE primary key?

Explanation

The most appropriate primary key in the school's student database would be the Student Number. A primary key is a unique identifier for each record in a database table, and the Student Number is likely assigned to each student and would not be duplicated. This ensures that each student record can be uniquely identified and accessed efficiently. The other options, such as Last name, First name, and Birthdate, may not be unique and could lead to data duplication or inefficiencies in retrieving specific student records.

Explanation

In a large corporate database, the most appropriate primary key would be the "Driver Number." A primary key is a unique identifier for each record in a database table, and the "Driver Number" would serve this purpose effectively. It is likely that each driver in the database would have a unique driver number assigned to them, making it a suitable choice for a primary key. The other options, such as "Number of laps," "Number of races," or "Total winnings," may not be unique to each driver and could lead to data duplication or inconsistencies.
