Q1. What is the name of the software used by a user to perform specific tasks on a computer?
A Operating system
B Utility software
C Artificial Intelligence
D Application software Correct
Explanation
Application software is designed for users to perform specific tasks, such as writing documents, preparing spreadsheets, browsing, or editing images. That is exactly what the question asks. An operating system manages hardware, files, memory, and other software, but it is not a task-specific user application. Utility software performs maintenance or support jobs such as antivirus scanning or file compression. Artificial intelligence is a field or capability used in some software, not the general name for user task software.
