Top MCQs on Heap Data Strcuture with Answers

What is the time complexity of Build Heap operation? 
(Build Heap is used to build a max(or min) binary heap from a given array. Build Heap is used in Heap Sort as a first step for sorting.)

A max-heap is a heap where the value of each parent is greater than or equal to the values of its children. Which of the following is a max-heap? (GATE CS 2011) .

A 3-ary max heap is like a binary max heap, but instead of 2 children, nodes have 3 children. A 3-ary heap can be represented by an array as follows: The root is stored in the first location, a[0], nodes in the next level, from left to right, is stored from a[1] to a[3]. The nodes from the second level of the tree from left to right are stored from a[4] location onward. An item x can be inserted into a 3-ary heap containing n items by placing x in the location a[n] and pushing it up the tree to satisfy the heap property. Which one of the following is a valid sequence of elements in an array representing 3-ary max heap?

Suppose the elements 7, 2, 10 and 4 are inserted, in that order, into the valid 3- ary max heap found in the above question, Which one of the following is the sequence of items in the array representing the resultant heap?

Consider a binary max-heap implemented using an array. Which among the following arrays represents a binary max-heap? 
(More than one option correct)

A min- Heap is a complete binary tree.

We have a binary heap on n elements and wish to insert n more elements (not necessarily one after another) into this heap. The total time required for this is (A) theta(logn) (B) theta(n) (C) theta(nlogn) (D) theta(n^2)

In a min-heap with n elements with the smallest element at the root, the 7th smallest element can be found in time:

What are the necessary condition for a Tree to be a heap?

The elements 32, 15, 20, 30, 12, 25, 16 are inserted one by one in the given order into a Max Heap. The resultant Max Heap is.
