Consider the relation R(P, Q, S, T, X, Y, Z, W) with the following functional dependencies.
PQ → X; P → YX; Q → Y; Y → ZW
Consider the decomposition of the relation R into the constituent relations according to the following two decomposition schemes.
D1 : R = [(P, Q, S, T); (P, T, X); (Q, Y); (Y, Z, W)]
D2 : R = [(P, Q, S); (T, X); (Q, Y); (Y, Z, W)]
Which one of the following options is correct?

Let the set of functional dependencies
F = {QR → S, R → P, S → Q}
hold on a relation schema X = (PQRS). X is not in BCNF. Suppose X is decomposed into two schemas Y and Z, where Y = (PR) and Z = (QRS).
Consider the two statements given below.
I. Both Y and Z are in BCNF
II. Decomposition of X into Y and Z is dependency preserving and lossless
Which of the above statements is/are correct?
