B. Field

C. Record

D. File

Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

A field in a database is a specific area within a record that contains only one type of information.

For example, in a database of employee records, a field might hold the employee's name, while another field might hold their ID number.

Each field is part of a larger structure called a record, which typically contains all the fields related to a single entity (e.g., all the details about one employee).

In summary, a field is the smallest unit of data in a database, holding just one piece of information.
