The knowledge base of an expert system that uses questionnaires to lead the user through a series of choices
before a conclusion is reached is known as:

A.
rules.

B.
decision trees.

C.
semantic nets.

D.
dataflow diagrams.

Explanation:
Decision trees use questionnaires to lead a user through a series of choices until a conclusion is reached.
Rules refer to the expression of declarative knowledge through the use of if-then relationships. Semantic nets
consist of a graph in which nodes represent physical or conceptual objects and the arcs describe the
relationship between the nodes. Semantic nets resemble a dataflow diagram and make use of an inheritance
mechanism to prevent duplication of data.
