2)process 1.0 is review application

Therefore answer is option (d)

process identifier 1.0, indicating that it's the first process one the top level diagram. A common technique with DFDs is to create detailed diagrams for each process to depict more granular levels of processing.

3)zero level DFD has five processes

Therefore answer is option (d)

DFD Level 0 is also called a Context Diagram. It’s a basic overview of the whole system or process being analyzed or modeled. It’s designed to be an at-a-glance view, showing the system as a single high-level process, with its relationship to external entities. It should be easily understood by a wide audience, including stakeholders, business analysts, data analysts and developers.

4)two data store would be depicted in the level zero DFD

Therefore answer is option (b)

Data store: files or repositories that hold information for later use, such as a database table or a membership form. Each data store receives a simple label, such as “Orders.”

5) primary key for animal table is intake number

Therefore answer is option (d)
