It is depended on how many bits the processor can process simultaneous...

Means 8 bit microprocessor can process 8 bit of data simultaneously...

& also it has 8 line data bus.. to transfer the data between memory & IO devices....

In same way for 64 bit..

What is the main advantage of selecting a 64bit operating system over a 32bit operating system?

It isn't an issue of advantages, it is an issue of compatibility with your computer. The 64 bit operating system can take full advantage of the capabilities of a 64 bit microprocessor, if your computer has a 64 bit microprocessor. However a 64 bit operating system will not run at all if your computer has an older 32 bit microprocessor; you will have to use a 32 bit operating system on that computer.

What is the difference between 8086 and 8088 microprocessor?

The difference between the 8086 and the 8088 is that the 8086 has a 16 bit data bus and that the 8088 has an 8 bit data bus. Both processors are the same 16 bit processor, and both have a 20 bit address bus. The 8086 is twice as fast as the 8088 in terms of data transfer rate on the bus for the same bus clock speed.
