Draw a separate EER diagram segment for each of the following situations:a. At a given time, a holding must be exactly one of these subtypes.b. A holding may or may not be one of these subtypes. However, a holding that is one of these subtypes cannot at the same time be one of the other subtypes.c. A holding may or may not be one of these subtypes. On the other hand, a holding may be any two (or even four) of these subtypes at the same time.d. At a given time, a holding must be at least one of these subtypes.arrow_forwardSo could someone explain to me what weak entities are using simple crows foot erd diagrams?arrow_forward
