Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

(a) Is false since the set N of all natural numbers is an infinite set having a finite subset, i.e., (1)
(b) is false since `phi` has not proper subsets. (c) is false since number of subsets of an empty set is odd (i.e., `2^(@)=1`).
(d) is clearly true.
