Answer / karn gusain
Guys;
1)kernel:The kernel is the part of the Operating System(OS)
that interacts directly with the hardware of computer
through device drivers that are built into the kernel. It
provides set of services that can be used by programs
insulating these programs from the underlying hardware.
Major functions of kernel are:
1. to manage computer memory
2.to control acces to the computer
3.to maintain file system
4.to handle interrupts
5.to handel errors
6.to perform input and output services(which allows
computers to interact with terminals storage devices and
printers) and
7.to allocate the resources of the computer(such as CPU and
input/output devices) among users.

responsible for controlling the computer's resources and
scheduling user jobs so that each one gets its fair share of
resources.
