Correct Answer

Explanation

Correct Answer Explanation:

A Distributed OS manages a group of independent, networked computers and makes them appear to users as a single, unified system. Resources like CPUs, memory, and storage are shared across all machines.

Why the other options are incorrect:

  • Option B: Batch OS runs on a single computer and processes jobs in batches — it doesn't distribute work.
  • Option C: Single-User OS supports only one user on one computer. It cannot manage multiple machines.
  • Option D: Embedded OS runs on individual embedded devices (microwaves, ATMs), not across multiple computers.
