What is a minimum spanning tree (MST) in graph theory?Select one:a. A subtree of a graph that connects all the vertices with the minimum possible total edge weight.b. Any subtree of a graph that includes all of its vertices.c. A subtree that includes the shortest path between every pair of vertices.d. A tree with the minimum number of edges possible.

Which algorithm is used to find the minimum spanning tree in a graph?A) Bellman-FordB) Kruskal'sC) Prim'sD) Dijkstra's

Based on discussions in class, assuming a common starting network of nodes and branches, would the shortest route and minimal spanning tree methods produce the same solution?Group of answer choicesIt is unlikely, as the objective for the methods are different.It depends on the parameters of the beta distribution.Yes, they would alway produce the same solution.It is not possible to apply both methods to the same set of nodes and branches.
