Answer:

False.

Step-by-step explanation:

A database management system (DBMS) can be defined as a collection of software applications that typically enables computer users to create, store, modify, retrieve and manage data or informations in a database. Generally, it allows computer users to efficiently retrieve and manage their data with an appropriate level of security.

A data dictionary can be defined as a centralized collection of information on a specific data such as attributes, names, fields and definitions that are being used in a computer database system.

This ultimately implies that, a data dictionary found in a computer database system typically contains the records about all the data elements (objects) such as data relationships with other elements, ownership, type, size, primary keys etc. This records are stored and communicated to other data when required or needed.

In database management, the term "schema" is used to denote a representation of data.

A database schema is a structure which is typically used to represent the logical design of the database and as such represents how data are stored or organized and the relationships existing in a database management system. There are two (2) main categories of a database schema; physical database schema and logical database schema.

A relational database can be defined as a type of database that is structured in a manner that there exists a relationship between its elements.

In the physical table of a relational database, a record used in the logical design of a database corresponds to a row.
