Minimum super key called composit key.

Practically candidate key has no appearance in database so we choose primary keys from candidate keys for the practical implementation.

Candidate key is a set of keys or attributes of an entity which are eligible to be a primary key at some time.

Candidate key is not possible, so primary key is selected from candidate keys.
