Computer Science for IGCSE & O level - Software (Section 8 - No. 3)

What is the primary difference between system software and application software?

System software runs on the cloud, and application software runs locally.

System software manages the computer's resources, while application software performs specific tasks for the user.

System software is written in low-level languages, while application software is written in high-level languages.

There is no difference; they are the same thing.

System software controls the computer's functionality, and application software performs specific tasks for the user.
