EXPLANATION Bio-Programming
  • Process States in Operating Systems:
  • The Ready state is a queue (Ready Queue) where processes that are loaded into primary memory and waiting for CPU allocation reside.
  • The number of CPUs ($n$) determines the maximum number of processes that can be in the Running state simultaneously ($n$ processes executing in parallel).
  • However, the number of processes in the Ready state is limited only by available system memory, page tables, and OS configuration, and is therefore independent of $n$.
  • Conclusion: Independent of n (Option 4).

Correct option: (4) Option 4
