A.E-R图只能表示实体之间的联系

B.E-R图只能表示实体和实体之间的联系

C.E-R图只能表示实体和属性

D.E-R图能表示实体、属性和实体之间的联系

答案

参考答案:D

解析: E-R图中,用3种图框分别表示实体、属性和实体之间的联系:矩形框表示实体,框内标明实体名:椭圆状框表示实体的属性,框内标明属性名:菱形框表示实体间的联系,框内标明联系名;实体与其属性之间以无向边连接,菱形框与相关实体之间也用无向边连接,并在无向边旁标明联系的类型。综上所述,用E-R图不仅可以简单明了地描述实体及其相互之间的联系,还可以方便地描述多个实体集之间的联系和一个实体集内部实体之间的联系。选项A、B、C的说法都错误,本题的正确答案是D。
