Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Operating Software is the first program run on a computer when computer boots up.

The BIOS chip tells it to look in a fixed place, usually on the lowest - numbered hard disk (the boot disk) for a special program called a boot loader (under Linux the boot loader is called Grub or LILO).
