11. How can you execute DML statements (i.e. insert, delete, update) in the database?
a. By making use of the InsertStatement, DeleteStatement or UpdateStatement classes
b. By invoking the execute(…) or executeUpdate(…) method of a normal Statement object
or a sub-interface object thereof
c. By invoking the executeInsert(…), executeDelete(…) or executeUpdate(…) methods of the
DataModificationStatement object
d. By making use of the execute(…) statement of the DataModificationStatement object
Ans: b
12. Are ResultSets updateable?

a. Yes, but only if you call the method openCursor() on the ResultSet, and if the driver and
database support this option
b. Yes, but only if you indicate a concurrency strategy when executing the statement, and if
the driver and database support this option
c. Yes, but only if the ResultSet is an object of class UpdateableResultSet, and if the driver
and database support thisoption
d. No, ResultSets are never updateable. You must explicitly execute DML statements (i.e.
insert, delete and update) to change the data in the underlying database
Ans: b

a. A transaction is a set of successfully executed statements in the database
