Weak entities do not get mapped into a relation.

  • A.True
  • B.False

Answer: B

Correct answer: False

A weak entity does become a relation. What distinguishes it is the primary key: the partial identifier of the weak entity combined with the primary key of the owner, which is also a foreign key. That composite key is what expresses the existence dependence in the relational model.
