When a computer is first turned on or restarted, a special type of absolute loader is executed, called a A. “Compile and Go” loader B. Boot loader C. Bootstrap loader D. Relating loader E. None of the above

The correct answer is: B. Boot loader

A boot loader is a special type of program that is used to load the operating system into the computer’s memory. It is the first program that is executed when the computer is turned on. The boot loader is stored in a special location on the hard drive, called the MBR (Master Boot Record). When the computer is turned on, the BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) reads the MBR and executes the boot loader. The boot loader then loads the operating system into memory and transfers control to it.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • A “Compile and Go” loader is a program that is used to compile and run a program. It is not used to load the operating system.
  • A Relating loader is a program that is used to load a related program. It is not used to load the operating system.
  • None of the above is a valid option.
