Answer Description

A CHECK constraint is used to limit the range of values that can be placed in a column. If you try to insert a salary value of less than $30,000, the database will return an error because of the CHECK constraint. PRIMARY KEY constraints are used to uniquely identify each row in a table. UNIQUE constraints prevent duplicate values in a single column or combination of columns. FOREIGN KEY constraints are used to link two tables together.
