A process in the "ready" state is

  • A.Executing
  • B.Waiting for I/O
  • C.Ready to run on CPU
  • D.Terminated

Answer: C

A process in the ready state is ready to run on CPU.

A ready process is in main memory and has everything it needs except the processor. It waits in the ready queue until the scheduler dispatches it, at which point it moves to the running state.

A process that is executing is in the running state. A process waiting for I/O is in the waiting (blocked) state; it cannot use the CPU even if offered until its I/O completes. A terminated process has finished, and the OS is only reclaiming its resources.
