An operator $$delete(i)$$ for a binary heap data structure is to be designed to delete the item in the $$i$$-th node. Assume that the heap is implemented in an array and i refers to the $$i$$-th index of the array. If the heap tree has depth $$d$$ (number of edges on the path from the root to the farthest leaf), then what is the time complexity to re-fix the heap efficiently after the removal of the element?
A
$$O\left( 1 \right)$$
B
$$O\left( d \right)$$ but not $$O\left( 1 \right)$$
C
$$O\left( {{2^d}} \right)$$ but not $$O\left( d \right)$$
D
$$O\left( {d{2^d}} \right)$$ but not $$O\left( {{2^d}} \right)$$

A complete binary min-heap is made by including each integer in $$[1,1023]$$ exactly once. The depth of a node in the heap is the length of the path from the root of the heap to that node. Thus, the root is at depth $$0.$$ The maximum depth at which integer $$9$$ can appear is ___________.

Consider a max heap, represented by the array: 40, 30, 20, 10, 15, 16, 17, 8, 4.
Array Index 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Value 40 30 20 10 15 16 17 8 4

Now consider that a value 35 is inserted into this heap. After insertion, the new heap is

A
40, 30, 20, 10, 15, 16, 17, 8, 4, 35
B
40, 35, 20, 10, 30, 16, 17, 8, 4, 15
C
40, 30, 20, 10, 35, 16, 17, 8, 4, 15
D
40, 35, 20, 10, 15, 16, 17, 8, 4, 30
