Answer to Question 1

It is not uncommon for a table that is returned as the result of a data manipulation operation, such as a query, to contain duplicate rows. This is often tolerated because of the processing time necessary for the DBMS to search the table to find and eliminate duplicate rows. This is especially true if the table is very large. In these cases, it is often acceptable to allow the duplicate rows to exist.

Answer to Question 2

Database administration
