A relation Empdt $$1$$ is defined with attributes empcode (unique), name, street, city, state and pincode. For any pincode, there is only one city and state. Also, for any given street city and the state, there is just one pincode. In normalization terms, Empdt$$1$$ is a relation in
A
$$1NF$$ only
B
$$2NF$$ and hence also in $$1NF$$
C
$$3NF$$ and hence also in $$2NF$$ and $$1NF$$
D
$$BCNF$$ and hence also in $$3NF,$$ $$2NF$$ and $$1NF$$

Consider the following functional dependencies in a database.
$$\eqalign{ & \,\,\,\,Date\,\,of\,\,Birth\,\, \to \,\,Age \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,Age\,\, \to \,\,Eligibility \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,Name\,\, \to \,\,Roll\_number \cr & \,\,\,\,\,Roll\_number\,\, \to \,\,Name \cr & Course\_number\, \to \,\,Course\_name \cr & Course\_number\, \to Instructor \cr & (Roll\_Number,\,Course\_number)\,\, \to \,\,Grade \cr} $$

The relation (Roll_number, Name, Date_of_Birth, Age) is

A
In $$2$$ $$NF$$ but not in $$3$$ $$NF$$
B
In $$3$$ $$NF$$ but not in $$BCNF$$
C
In $$BCNF$$
D
None of the above

Relation $$R$$ is decomposed using a set of functional dependencies, $$F,$$ and relation $$S$$ is decomposed using another set of functional dependencies, $$G.$$ One decomposition is definitely $$BCNF,$$ the other is definitely. $$3NF,$$ but it is not known which is which. To make a guaranteed identification, which one of the following tests should be used on the decompositions? (Assume that the closures of $$F$$ and $$G$$ are available).
A
Dependency-preservation
B
Lossless-join
C
$$BCNF$$ definition
D
$$3$$ $$NF$$ definition
