Ans) A Database Management System (DBMS) Organizes All The Data So That It Can Be Retrieved Easily

A DBMS organizes data to allow for easy retrieval. It performs functions like creating, modifying, deleting, and adding data to a database. Microsoft Access and My SQL are examples of DBMS software. A primary key uniquely identifies each record in a table, such as a student's roll number identifying each student record. The four objects in a Microsoft Access database are tables to store data, forms to enter data, queries to retrieve and display selected data, and reports to print retrieved data. Microsoft Access databases can be created as a blank database or from a template.

in a database. The software that performs these functions is called a database management system.

b. Name any two DBMS software packages.

value in the primary field is different for every record and thus helps to identify records uniquely. For
example, in a table containing information about students of Class VIII A, the column Roll No behaves as
the primary key because every student has a unique roll number.
d. List the four objects in a Microsoft Access database.
Ans) The four objects in a Microsoft Access database are:
i. Tables These store the data in a database.
ii. Forms These make it easy to enter data in tables.
iii. Query Based on selection criteria, a query retrieves data from one or more tables and displays it
on screen.
iv. Report This retrieves data and displays it in an easy-to-read format for printing.
e. What are the two ways of creating a Microsoft Access database.

Ans) The two ways of creating a Microsoft Access database are by using a blank database or by using a
template.
