What are primary keys and foreign keys?..

Answer / nevual

Primary keys are the unique identifiers for each row. They
must contain unique values and cannot be null. Due to their
importance in relational databases, Primary keys are the
most fundamental of all keys and constraints. A table can
have only one Primary key.
Foreign keys are both a method of ensuring data integrity
and a manifestation of the relationship between tables.

Primary key is a unique id for each table. This prevents
