Statement I:An operating system controls peripherals and provides protection against viruses.
Statement II:In word processing and desktop publishing, the terms portrait and landscape refer to page layout.
ABoth Statement I and Statement II are true
BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false ✓ Correct
CStatement I is true but Statement II is false
DStatement I is false but Statement II is true
Correct answer: (B) Both Statement I and Statement II are false
Explanation
Statement 1 is false because an operating system controls peripherals but does not by itself provide protection against viruses.
Statement 2 is false because portrait and landscape describe page orientation rather than page layout.
Guarding against viruses is the job of dedicated antivirus software, not the core operating system.
Portrait places the page taller than it is wide, and landscape places it wider than tall.
Page layout is the broader arrangement of margins, columns and spacing on the page.
The operating system does manage hardware, memory and files for the applications running on it.
