Answer:
Referential Integrity;
- The association between tables is referred to as referential integrity.
- A primary key is required for each table in a database and can appear in other tables as a result of its connection to the data in those other tables.
- A foreign key is what is used when a primary key from one table appears in another table.
- It indicates that a proper reference must be made from a row in one table to another table.
- Examples of referential integrity restrictions seen in the company's customer/order database include Order from Customer.
- Values in a foreign key column must either be present in the primary key that the foreign key references, or they must be null, according to the Referential Integrity constraint.
