Correct answer: C
Concept
A graphical user interface presents commands and information through visual elements rather than only typed commands.
An operating system may provide this interface; a window, an icon, and a menu are distinct interface elements with different functions.
Application
Match each definition cue to the term it defines, then read the letter codes in blank order.
Blank | Definition cue | Matching term and code |
|---|---|---|
1 | Interface built around visual elements | GUI (E) |
2 | Windows 11 as system software providing that interface | OS (A) |
3 | Screen region used to display information | Window (C) |
4 | Small picture representing a folder or software | Icon (D) |
5 | List of choices offered to the user | Menu (B) |
Cross-check and contrast
E, A, C, B, D places Menu in the small-picture blank and Icon in the list-of-choices blank.
A, E, D, C, B begins with OS for the visual interface and also assigns Icon and Window to the next two definition cues.
E, A, C, D, B preserves all five definition-to-term mappings in order.
B, C, A, E, D begins with Menu for the visual interface and assigns Window to the operating-system blank.
Therefore, the required sequence is E, A, C, D, B.
