Table Relationships

Trying to understand the concept of table relationships and non-identifying and identifying relationships

2 related tables "Code Table" and "MATERIALL Table"



Code table has a primary key code-id-primary has 10 entries and there can be many code-id_primary fields in the material table

material table and the primary key is "partnumber"

is this a 1:n non-identifying relationship or is it
a 1:1 non-identifying relationship

Another example

2 Tables MATERIAL and "Prefered Vendors"

MATERIAL PRIMARY KEY is part-number

"Prefered Vendors " Primary key is PV-ID and is INT and auto incremented

each part number in MATERIAL can have 1:M records in the "Prefered Vendors" Table and there must be an associated MATERIAL Table row
for any "Prefered Vendors" to exist

This then is an 1:n Identifying relationship Correct?
