Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Concept

A matching question links each term to the category defined by its standard function.

Hardware devices are classified by what they do, application software by the task it performs, and an operating system by its role in managing a computing device.

Application

  1. A hub connects multiple devices in a network, so Hub matches Network device (III).

  2. A joystick sends a user’s directional and control inputs to a computer, so Joystick matches Input device (I).

  3. Notepad is used to create and edit plain text, so Notepad matches Text editor (IV).

  4. Android manages device hardware and applications, so Android matches Operating system (II).

Cross-check and contrast

The four independent classifications give the mapping A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II.

  • A-I, B-III, C-IV, D-II treats the hub as an input device and the joystick as a network device.

  • A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV interchanges the roles of Notepad and Android.

  • A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III assigns categories that do not match the standard functions of the four terms.

Therefore, the required mapping is A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II.
