Question: Consider just the STUDENT relation from DAYCARE . The relation has several functional dependencies. We can guess what they are by looking at the data

 Consider just the STUDENT relation from DAYCARE. The relation has several functional dependencies. We can guess what they are by looking at the data and the requirements. One functional dependency is problematic because it violates a normal form.

a. What is the problematic functional dependency?


b. What type of functional dependency is it?


c. What normal form does the functional dependency violate?


d.  Normalize the relation so that it is in third normal form (3NF). Write out the schemas for all resulting tables (no data, just schemas). Indicate all primary keys by underlining and all foreign keys with arrows.


e. Suppose a new student named Thandi enrolls in the daycare. She is 3 years old in classroom B. Her phone number is (355) 672-2755. What row or rows would you add to the database for the new student, considering your new schemas?
