Answer 2

Plug-and-play refers to the ability for the operating system to automatically detect and configure a device (like a camera). Correct answer: C

This feature of a computer system allows an electronic device to be used as soon as it is connected to a computer. This means that drivers for the device do not have to be manually installed. In a plug-and-play solution the computer automatically recognizes the device, loads new drivers for the hardware if needed, and begins to work with the newly connected device.
