Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Options are additional parameters or modifiers that can change the behavior of a command. For example, the "ls" command can have options like "-l" to display a detailed list or "-a" to show hidden files.

Answer: H
 Arguments are the input values or parameters passed to a command. For example, the "mkdir" command requires an argument for the name of the directory to be created.

Answer: E
 The terminal is a command-line interface where users can type commands to interact with the system. This is where commands for altering the way a command works can be executed.

Note: The other choices are not directly related to altering the way a command works. A boot loader is responsible for loading the operating system, dual booting refers to having two different operating systems installed on the same machine, ext2 and ext3 are file systems used in Linux, NIS is a network service for managing user accounts, and poweroff is a command to power off the system.
