Yes, the earliest computers built did not have operating systems (the idea of an operating system had not been thought of) so individual programs were loaded and run one at a time. The first computer I used (in 1973) had no operating system, programs punched on decks of cards were loaded and run one at a time.
The first microcomputers sold did not have enough memory to load an operating system. When Bill Gates wrote the original version of Microsoft BASIC for the MITS Altair 8800 the standard 8800 came with only 256 bytes of RAM and Microsoft BASIC could not run with less than 4096 bytes of RAM (it was already very expensive to expand the RAM to that size), so Microsoft BASIC was written to run without an operating system.
There are also embedded system computers that are dedicated to one purpose and usually run one preloaded program supplied by the manufacturer and do not allow other programs to be loaded. While some embedded system computers do use an operating system, it is also common for the preloaded program to be written to directly control all the hardware directly without the need for an operating system.
A computer without an operating system will not operate.
Operating system is more important than the application software, in the sense that the operating system is the mother of all software that are to run on the computer. without the operating system, it is impossible for the computer to run. operating system provides a platform for all other software to be installed on. it is actually the main software that supports all other software.
Both are software, operating system is software that will make your computer boot up and run. while Application software is a program that will run on a functional operating system.
On a Mac computer the operating system is OSX. All of the solutions are OSX based and are different for each application.
The operating system (OS) controls the hardware. A successful computer system will have hardware and an operating system. Application software is not required. All operating systems have a low level, or machine language to run the operation system and control all hardware.

An operating system runs common services for computer programs and manages the computer hardware resources. An operating system is necessary to run application programs.

No. Microsoft Access is a database application, not an operating system.
nope
False.
operating systems tell the different parts of the computer how to talk to one another and let the user do the same. any computer is just a paper weight without an operating system to get all it's parts working together. even with an OS without application software, a computer is not much of a useful tool for the average person.
An operating system (OS) is system software that manages computer hardware and software resources and provides common services for computer programs. The operating system is a component of the system software in a computer system. Application programs usually require an operating system to function.
it helps to operate the application software and the system software of hte computer
