Which algorithm finds the Minimum Spanning Tree by selecting edges in increasing order of weight?

  1. A.

    Prim's Algorithm

  2. B.

    Dijkstra's Algorithm

  3. C.

    Kruskal's Algorithm

  4. D.

    Floyd-Warshall Algorithm

  5. E.

    Bellman-Ford Algorithm

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Correct answer: Kruskal's Algorithm.

Kruskal's Algorithm sorts all edges by weight and adds the smallest edge that does not create a cycle. This edge-selection method builds the MST for a connected weighted graph.
