Which of the following statements is false? Select the correct answer.

Question

Options

• AMultiple XML documents can link to the same XML schema.
• BOne XML document can link to multiple XML schemas.
• CXML schemas cannot be embedded within XML documents.
• DXML schemas can exist as separate files.

• A
  7% (2)
• B
  3% (1)
• C
  86% (25)
• D
  3% (1)

Explanation

Option C is the false statement because XML schemas can be embedded within XML documents - this is common practice in technologies like WSDL, where XSD schema definitions appear inline inside the document structure, rather than as external files.

Options A and D are both true and describe standard XML schema usage: schemas typically live as separate .xsd files (D), and many XML documents across a project can point to the same shared schema (A). Option B is also true - a single XML document can reference multiple schemas by declaring multiple namespace bindings, each linked to a different schema file.

Memory tip: Think of XML schemas like CSS stylesheets - just as you can link multiple HTML pages to one stylesheet, embed styles inline, or even reference multiple stylesheets, XML schemas offer the same flexibility. If a question claims schemas are restricted to one mode of use, that restriction is almost certainly false.
