Explanation

Answer:A) To ensure data consistency and integrity

Explanation: The primary goal of normalization is to ensure that each elementary "fact" is recorded in only one place within the database.
This helps maintain data consistency and integrity by preventing data duplication and anomalies.
Normalization eliminates redundant data and structures the database in a way that allows for efficient insertions, updates, and deletions while maintaining the accuracy and consistency of the data.
