Multiple Choice

In a data table, which component stores the attributes describing each entity?

Attributes describing each entity are stored in columns. Each column represents one attribute (like name, age, or email) and holds that attribute’s value for every entity (row) in the table. Rows identify the individual entities, and the cell at the intersection of a row and a column holds the specific value. Keys exist to uniquely identify rows, not to store attributes.
