Name, courseNo $$\,\, \to \,\,$$ grade
RollNo, courseNo $$\,\, \to \,\,$$ grade
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ Name $$\,\, \to \,\,$$ rollNo
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ RollNo $$\,\, \to \,\,$$ name

The highest normal form of this relation scheme is

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
