What is the basic function of an operating system?

  1. Manage and control data

  2. Connect to the internet

  3. Organize files and folders

  4. Access and display webpages

The correct answer is: Organize files and folders

The other options are incorrect because they are not a fundamental function of an operating system. While an operating system may have some capabilities in managing and controlling data, connecting to the internet, and displaying webpages, its primary function is to organize files and folders to ensure that the computer system and its applications can operate efficiently. Without proper organization and management of files, the other functions would not be possible. Hence, C is the basic function of an operating system.
