Which statement is false? a) In a tightly packed binary tree, each level contains about twice as many elements as the previous level. b) When searching a tightly packed 1,000,000-element binary search tree, a maximum of approximately 20 comparisons need to be made. c) The level-order traversal of a binary tree visits the nodes of the tree row-by-row starting at the root node level. d) Searching a binary tree for a value that matches a key value is slow for tightly packed trees.

Suppose that we want to create a binary search tree where each node contains information of some data type called Item (which has a default constructor and a correct value semantics). a. What additional factor is required for the Item data type? b. Suppose that a binary search tree contains the number 42 at a node with two children. Write two or three clear sentences to describe the process required to delete the 42 from the tree.
