  • B.Manage CPU scheduling
  • C.Provide a structured way to store and access data

Answer: C

The file system's main purpose is to provide a structured way to store and access data.

A file system organises data on storage devices into named files and directories, keeps track of where each file's blocks are, and controls access, so programs and users can store and retrieve data by name.

Memory allocation, CPU scheduling and peripheral control are the jobs of the memory manager, the process scheduler and the device manager.
