Which one of the following is one the benefits of a Microkernel Organizaton?
A
Portability
B
Safety
C
Privacy
D
Productivity
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Advantages of Microkernel Microkernels are modular, and the different modules can be replaced, reloaded, modified without even touching the Kernel. Fewer system crashes when compared with monolithic systems. Microkernel interface helps you to enforce a more modular system structure.

Detailed explanation-2: -2.11 What are the main advantages of the microkernel approach to system design? service does not require modifying the kernel, (b) it is more secure as more operations are done in user mode than in kernel mode, and (c) a simpler kernel design and functionality typically results in a more reliable operating system.

Detailed explanation-3: -Microkernels are secure since only those parts are added, which might disturb the system’s functionality. Microkernels are modular, and the various modules may be swapped, reloaded, and modified without affecting the kernel. Microkernel architecture is compact and isolated, so it may perform better.

Detailed explanation-4: -One of the major advantages of having a monolithic kernel is that it provides CPU scheduling, memory management, file management, and other operating system functions through system calls. The other one is that it is a single large process running entirely in a single address space. It is a single static binary file.
