A Correct answer
Explanation

Functional dependencies generalize the concept of key dependencies in database normalization theory. A key dependency is a special case where the determinant is a candidate key. Option B (Relation dependencies) and C (Database dependencies) are not standard theoretical concepts in this context. Option D cannot be correct because A is specifically right, and E is unnecessary since A is valid.
