Solution
Foreign Key is a non-key attribute, whose values are derived from the primary key of some other table.
Explanation:
- Primary Key - It is used to uniquely identify the tuples in a relation.
- Foreign Key - It is used to represent the relationship between two tables/relations and its value is derived from the primary key of some other table.
- Candidate Key - refers to the set of all attributes which can uniquely identify records in a relation.
- Alternate Key - It is a candidate key that has not been selected to be the primary key.
So, the correct answer is Foreign Key.

Suppose your school management has decided to conduct cricket matches between students of Class XI and Class XII. Students of each class are asked to join any one of the four teams – Team Titan, Team Rockers, Team Magnet, and Team Hurricane. During summer vacations, various matches will be conducted between these teams. Help your sports teacher to do the following:
- Create a database “Sports”.
- Create a table “TEAM” with the following considerations:
i) It should have a column TeamID for storing an integer value between 1 to 9, which refers to the unique identification of a team.
ii) Each TeamID should have its associated name (TeamName), which should be a string of length not less than 10 characters. - Using table level constraint, make TeamID the primary key.
- Show the structure of the table TEAM using a SQL statement.
- As per the preferences of the students four teams were formed as given below. Insert these four rows in the TEAM table:
Row 1: (1, Team Titan)
Row 2: (2, Team Rockers)
Row 3: (3, Team Magnet)
Row 3: (4, Team Hurricane) - Show the contents of the table TEAM using a DML statement.
