      Question

      Which algorithm returns a minimum spanning tree (MST)

      and uses a priority queue to select the next edge connected to the growing tree?
      A Kruskal’s algorithm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Prim’s algorithm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Dijkstra’s algorithm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Bellman-Ford Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E Ford-Fulkerson Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Prim grows an MST from a start vertex, repeatedly adding the minimum-weight edge connecting tree to outside vertices (priority queue used for efficiency).
