Each record is constituted by a number of individual data items which are called A. Fields B. Data Types C. Relations D. Tables

Fields
Data Types
Relations
Tables

The correct answer is: A. Fields

A field is a single piece of information about a person, place, thing, or event. It is the smallest unit of data in a database. Fields are typically represented by columns in a table.

For example, in a table of employees, each employee would have a record with fields for their name, address, phone number, and email address.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • Data types are the different kinds of data that can be stored in a database. For example, a data type might be a number, a string, or a date.
  • Relations are the connections between different tables in a database. For example, a relation might be that an employee works for a company.
  • Tables are a collection of related records. For example, a table of employees might contain records for all of the employees in a company.
