## Models, Databases, Relationships in Rails
#### What is the difference between a primary key and a foreign key? Where would we find a primary key? What would it be called by default? Where would we find a foreign key? What is the naming convention for a foreign key?
We find a primary key as the main identifier of a table. Example: Teachers: TeacherId. A Foreign creates the relationship between tables.
Example: Teachers : course_id. The naming convention for these are the table they belong to + "_id"
#### Write down one example of:
* a `one-to-one `relationship.
each person has one toothbrush and one toothbrush has one person. This is modeled by combining both to a single table because they are
dependent of eachother
