Is the process of defining one or more subtypes of the supertype and forming Supertype subtype relationships?
Generalization; specialization. Generalization is the process of defining a generalized entity type from a set of more specialized entity types while specialization is the process of defining one or more subtypes of the supertype.
What rule specifies that an entity can be a member of only one subtype at a time?
The disjoint rule specifies that if an entity instance of the supertype is a member of one subtype, it MUST simultaneously be a member of another subtype.
When a subtype entity that inherits values of all attributes of the supertype?

Term Enhanced entity-relationship (EER) model | Definition A model that has resulted from extending the original E-R model with new modeling. |
Term Attribute inheritance | Definition a property by which subtype entities inherit values of all attributes and instances of all relationships of their supertype. |
How many subtypes can a Supertype have?
In general, a supertype will have two or more subtypes. (Either that, or it will be possible for the supertype to have ``instances of its own,'' which aren't also instances of the subtype.) However, a subtype is (directly) a subtype of only one supertype.
