Question

question 5 (mandatory) (1 point)
listen
which of the following best describes interrupt handling?
the method used to prioritize device drivers
the procedure followed by the cpu to respond to an interrupt signal
the configuration of user interfaces
the process of assigning memory to applications
question 6 (mandatory) (1 point)
listen
what happens when an interrupt occurs?
the device driver is uninstalled
the cpu saves the current context and executes the interrupt handler
memory allocation is reconfigured
the cpu continues processing the current task

Explanation:

Interrupt handling is the sequence of actions the CPU takes upon receiving an interrupt signal. When an interrupt occurs, the CPU saves its current state (context) and then runs the appropriate interrupt - handling routine. For Question 5, prioritizing device drivers, configuring user interfaces, and assigning memory to applications are not related to interrupt handling. For Question 6, uninstalling the device driver, reconfiguring memory allocation, or continuing the current task are incorrect descriptions of what happens when an interrupt occurs.

Answer:

Question 5: The procedure followed by the CPU to respond to an interrupt signal
Question 6: The CPU saves the current context and executes the interrupt handler
