About this MCQ

This Hard Data Structures MCQ checks one syllabus fact.

The question is: “In computer science, Heap refers to which of the following?”

The accepted answer is D. A tree-based structure that satisfies the heap property, often used to implement priority queues.. In computer science Heap refers to which of the following is answered by A tree-based structure that satisfies the heap property often used to implement priority queues option D Option A A linear data structure that follows the First-In-First-Out FIFO principle does not match the stem it is a near-miss used to catch incomplete recall of A tree-based structure that satisfies the heap property often used to implement priority queues Option B A linked list where each node has pointers to both the next and previous nodes does not match the stem it is a near-miss used to catch incomplete recall of A tree-based structure that satisfies the heap property often used to implement priority queues Remaining alternatives A structure.

Correct answer

D. A tree-based structure that satisfies the heap property, often used to implement priority queues.
