-> memory management -> catching -> pooling
False, the operating system is not responsible for storing files and folders on a secondary storage device.
A data can be retrieved from the secondary storage for use in main memory, but if we edit the data and not save the data in to the secondary storage, it is termed as a dirty page.
An operating system is software that manages computer hardware, software resources, and provides services for computer programs. It serves as an intermediary between users and computer hardware, enabling the execution of programs and the management of resources such as memory, storage, and input/output devices. Examples of operating systems include Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Role of the Memory management unit in Operating system Every program for its execution requires some space in computer memory which is provided by memory management unit using virtual memory that provides the external storage addressing location for the programs that does not have too much space in main memory for their execution and saved them in secondary memory but when required loaded them again in main memory. This deallocation and reallocation of programs in main memory deals with concurrency. At last, we say that loading capabilities of programs with the memory addressing is there in it.
Mapping files onto secondary storage refers to the process of associating logical data structures, such as files or databases, with physical storage locations on secondary storage devices like hard drives or SSDs. This mapping is typically managed by the operating system's file system, which keeps track of where each file is stored on the storage device. By mapping files onto secondary storage, the operating system can efficiently retrieve and store data, ensuring that files are organized and accessible to users and applications.
Managing the free space available on the secondary-storage device.Allocation of storage space when new files have to be written.Scheduling the requests for memory access.
The Loader is a program that moves the executable file produced by linker from the secondary storage device to memory for execution
it gets a bunch of people to carry it there
Yes, an operating system is responsible for storing files and folders on a secondary storage device using an organizational method called the file system.

Primary storage is usually the drive where the operating system is and the secondary storage is a additional drive for space. Usually, Windows names it's primary drive as C:\ and all it's following as other letters.
