Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Booting is the process which is initiated once the computer system starts and executes small set of instructions present in the ROM which will setup system hardware by testing them and load the operating system so that computer system can carry out further tasks.

Detailed explanation-2: -The correct answer is Booting. The action of a computer to load an operating system into the computer’s main memory or random-access memory (RAM) is called Booting. Booting is a startup sequence that starts the operating system of a computer when it is turned on.

Detailed explanation-3: -The operating system is loaded via a bootstrapping procedure, often known as booting. An operating system or other larger program, such as a boot loader, is loaded by this application. The process of booting involves turning on a computer. The memory of the CPU is empty when it is first turned on.

Detailed explanation-4: -When your computer has completed the startup sequence, the BIOS passes control to the operating system. Operating systems control the computer’s resources, software, and hardware. Examples of common operating systems are Windows 10, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS.

Detailed explanation-5: -In computing, booting is the process of starting a computer as initiated via hardware such as a button or by a software command. After it is switched on, a computer’s central processing unit (CPU) has no software in its main memory, so some process must load software into memory before it can be executed.
