Bthe set of attributes describing one entity
Ca collection of entities all having the same properties
Dthe relationship between two distinguishable things
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. a collection of entities all having the same properties
An entity is one thing
an entity set is the collection of all such things sharing the same property shape.
**NPTEL:** 'Entity Set or Entity Type: Collection of entities all having the same properties.' The other options confuse entity vs entity set, or mix in relationships.
