Kernal
The two main components of an operating system are the kernel and the applications. The kernel maintains basic control over the computer's hardware. The kernel contains the CPU, memory and devices. Applications include the network, the user interface and security.
Actually, UNIX is an operating system. It is generally used in business applications on large mainframe computers. However, many hobbyists prefer it for its simplicity and scalability.
The operating system is the software that directly controls the computer and other hardware, providing support services to other software, such as applications. Applications are what most people work with most of the time, and include word processors, spreadsheets, Internet software, games, and so on. Examples of operating systems on small computers include various versions of DOS, the Macintosh OS, and Windows. Some operating systems are designed for specific computers. Others, such as UNIX and LINUX, are designed to provide a generalized interface for many types of computers.
Yes that way information can be sent to other computers that may use different operating systems
Ovbiously, all computer need an operating system, it's just like the life in the dead body. For interaction between user and computer or between applications and computer , there must exist some interface. Operating system provides that interface to applications by providing an environment to run the applications and providing the hardware resources they need. OS provide interface to users by providing a medium to user to interact with computer.

iMovie and Final Cut Express are applications created by Apple for their Macintosh range of computers and are not available for computers running the Windows operating system.
Information is the innermost layer of a computer system. In order, the next layers are hardware, programming, the operating system, the applications and communications.
Macs use an operating system called Mac OS X which will not run applications written for the Windows operating system. Microsoft produce a Mac OS X version of Word for Apple's Mac computers. There is the option of installing the Windows operating system on a MacBook alongside Mac OS X which allows Windows applications as well as Mac OS X applications to be used.
The operating system acts as a buffer between the computer's hardware and the applications it is running. To use a computer without an operating system you will need applications that communicate directly with the hardware - as was often the case in the days before powerful operating systems such as Windows and Mac OS became the norm- but to harness the full power that computers offer today a modern operating system is required.

Operating systems are not in applications. Applications are installed on Operating Systems.

It tells you that applications designed for the Macintosh operating system (Mac OS X) that run natively on both Power PC- and Intel-based Macintosh computers are called Universal applications.
