Threads are the smallest unit of processing that can be scheduled by an operating system. They allow for concurrent execution within a process, enabling multiple tasks to run simultaneously, which enhances application performance and responsiveness. Threads share the same memory space, facilitating communication and data sharing, while reducing overhead compared to processes. Additionally, they improve resource utilization and can lead to more efficient programming through parallelism.

How are arguments passed to a function?

Arguments are passed to functions via the thread's function call stack. Every thread has its own call stack, which is a small region of contiguous, fixed-size memory that extends downwards into lower addresses. The stack is allocated when the thread is instantiated and deallocated when the thread terminates thus there is minimal cost in using the stack. Data is pushed and popped from the stack while a stack pointer keeps track of the top of the stack (the lowest unused address).
