@Shewangizaw Bogale.
Option A represents parallel execution and option B represents concurrent execution. There is a difference in parallel and concurrent execution, In parallel, multiple programs are executed by CPU simultaneously and In Concurrent execution, programs are executed in a time-sharing manner. In multiprogramming, multiple programs reside in main memory and then CPU executes them in a concurrent manner.
Option C represents Multiprocessing.
