Question

In database normalization theory, which anomaly specifically refers to the unintended loss of information when a record is removed, because that record happened to be the only one holding a particular fact?

B Update anomaly, where the same fact must be modified redundantly across multiple stored rows
C Concurrency anomaly, where two simultaneous transactions produce an inconsistent final database state
D Referential anomaly, where a foreign key value no longer matches any existing primary key
E Deletion anomaly, where removing one record inadvertently destroys an unrelated fact stored only there
