Answer:
C is the answer!

Explanation:

A hard drive contains your operating system which can include your settings and preferences that you included in your device. But it mostly is a storage device so we know it WOULD NOT BE (B.

WOULD NOT BE D beacause powering it back on wouldnt do anything but bring you back to the start.

WOULD NOT BE A beacuse when taking out the battery then putting it back in would just be like turning it off then back on beacuse that just hold the power to a device.

IT WOULD BE C, C IS THE ANSWER beacuse a CMOS batttery contains the main system settings and  also contains information so i think C would be the best answer for this choice.


Hope this helps!

You are planning to install Windows 10 on a computer in a dual-boot configuration. The computer already has Windows 8 installed.

Answer:

Shrink the primary partition and create a simple volume for Windows 10.

Explanation:

The EFI’s partition space, after it is shrunk, will not be enough to install your Windows 10 since by default; it can only hold a maximum space of about 250MB to 500MB. Some windows versions call this partition EFI while others refer to it as system reserved. Windows uses EFI partition to hold on to essential components that make your PC boot like boot loaders, system utilities, and a few more.

The answer is B.

When you shrink your volume, whether it is local disk C or a primary partition with plenty of free space, it will create unallocated space. Right click on the unallocated space and create a New Simple Volume that will let you format your partition, assign a drive letter, and install your Windows 10 Operating System.
