Answer options

• A. To document the relationship between the two tables
• B. To create a corresponding foreign key relationships in the database
• C. To ensure the integrity of data in the corresponding database tables

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because a foreign key relationship is designed to enforce data integrity by ensuring that the values in one table correspond to valid entries in another. Options A and B do not capture this critical aspect of data integrity; they focus on documentation and creation rather than the enforcement of valid relationships.
