Question: Josiah states that two graphs are isomorphic since they both have 10 edges and 4 vertices. Do you agree with his argument?

Answer Choices: No, since in order for the graphs to be isomorphic the degrees of the vertices must be retained as well as edge connectivity Yes, since an isomorphism of graphs just means they have the same number of vertices and edges connecting them Yes, since having the same number of edges and vertices guarantees that the degree of the vertices is retained No because graphs cannot be isomorphic, only functions can

Answer: A) No, since in order for the graphs to be isomorphic the degrees of the vertices must be retained as well as edge connectivity
