Answer 1

Answer: The correct answer is "A) A system that captures detailed data created by business processes".

Explanation: A Transaction Processing System is a system that captures detailed data created by business processes.

It is generally one of the most widely used types of system since it effectively facilitates the repetitive routine transactions that arise from commercial processes of any kind. This system works with data, but does not analyze or organize it, that is, it does not transform it into information.
