Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An entity is an object, event, or agent about which data are collected in a database or information system. Entities are typically represented as tables in a relational database, and each row in the table represents a single instance of that entity. Attributes are the characteristics or properties of an entity, and relationships describe how entities are related or connected to each other. A query is a request for information from a database.
