What does the 5NF form of normalization say?

Options
- Tables cannot have multi-valued dependencies on a Primary Key.
- The database should be in 3NF and all tables can have only one primary key
- There should be no cyclic dependencies in a composite key
- all attributes within the entity should depend solely on the entity's unique identifier.


CORRECT ANSWER : There should be no cyclic dependencies in a composite key

Explanation.

Answer : There should be no cyclic dependencies in a composite key.

Fifth normal form, also known as join-projection normal form (JPNF), states that no non-trivial join dependencies exist. 5NF states that any fact should be able to be reconstructed without any anomalous results in any case, regardless of the number of tables being joined. A 5NF table should have only candidate keys and it’s primary key should consist of only a single column.
An entity must be in Fourth Normal Form.
