Correct Answer

Explanation

Correct Answer Explanation:

Plug and Play is an OS feature that automatically detects, installs drivers for, and configures new hardware devices when connected — no manual setup needed.

Why the other options are incorrect:

  • Option B: Batch processing is about running jobs, not detecting hardware.
  • Option C: 'Static loading' has no relation to hardware detection.
  • Option D: Manual boot is the opposite — it requires user intervention, not automatic hardware support.
