Q1. Which of the following is true about priority-based scheduling with preemption?

🔹 A. A running process can never be interrupted

🔹 B. A running process is preempted only when its time quantum expires

🔹 C. A running process will be preempted if a higher-priority process becomes ready

🔹 D. Preemption is not supported in priority-based scheduling

💡 Difficulty: easy | ✅ Correct: C

Q2. In a priority-based real-time system, what is the role of an admission-control algorithm?

🔹 A. To terminate low-priority processes
