Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Metadata includes information on the source, format, assumptions and constraints of data, as well as other relevant facts. Data structures refer to the organization and format of data itself, not the metadata surrounding it. Microdata typically refers to a specific type of data collected through surveys. Network packets are units of data transmitted over a network, and do not necessarily include metadata.
