Eliminating modification anomalies is a(n) ________ of normalization.

  • A.advantage
  • B.disadvantage
  • C.either an advantage or disadvantage
  • D.neither an advantage nor disadvantage

Answer: A

Correct answer: advantage

This is the central benefit and the reason normalization exists. A relation carrying more than one theme suffers insertion, deletion and update anomalies: a fact cannot be recorded without an unrelated one, deleting a row destroys information, and a single change must be made in many places. Decomposing into well-formed relations removes all three.
