Chapter 1: An introduction to relational databases and SQL COMPLETION 1. The three main hardware components of a client/server system are the clients, the server, and the __________________________________. 2. To retrieve or update the data in a database, the client sends a/an _____________________ to the database. 3. A relational database consists of one or more __________________. 4. A/An _______________________ uniquely identifies each row in a table. 5. The intersection of a row and a column is commonly called a/an ____________________. 6. To relate one table to another, a/an _______________________ in one table is used to point to the primary key in another table. 7. The most common type of relationship between two tables is a/an _______________________ relationship. 8. When a column in a table is defined, it is given a data ________________ that determines what kind of data it can store. 9. The extension to the SQL language that Oracle Database offers is called _______________________. 10. SQL statements that define the tables in a database are referred to as _____________________ statements. 11. Insert, Update, and Delete statements can be referred to as _________________ queries. 12. A view is a SELECT statement that is stored with the __________________. MULTIPLE CHOICE 1.

A stored procedure is compiled each time that it is executed. b. A stored procedure is stored in the database. c. A stored procedure can include both SQL and PL/SQL statements. 8. A database driver is software that lets the a. b. c. d. data access model communicate with the application program data access model communicate with the database application program communicate with the data access model application program communicate with the database
