‘DOS’ floppy disk does not have:

ABoot record

BFile allocation table

CRoot directory

DVirtual memory

Answer:

D. Virtual memory

Read Explanation:

A DOS floppy disk typically contains:

1. Boot record (or boot sector): Initializes the operating system.

2. File allocation table (FAT): Manages file locations and storage.

3. Root directory: Stores file and directory information.

Virtual memory, however, is not stored on a floppy disk. Virtual memory is:

- A combination of physical RAM and hard drive space.

- Used to temporarily store data when physical RAM is full.

- Managed by the operating system.

DOS floppy disks were widely used in the 1980s and 1990s for data storage and transfer.

Other components you might find on a DOS floppy disk include:

- System files (e.g., IO.SYS, MSDOS.SYS)

- Directory entries

- File data

But virtual memory is not stored on the floppy disk itself.
