Modeling M:M Relationships

M:M relationships are modeled by placing the primary key of entity A and the primary key of entity B as foreign keys comprising the entire primary key of a separate entity referred to as an associative table. This is another example of the subjectivity of E-R theory, because a relationship is expressed as a physical table in the database.
