Explanation
The correct answer is A. top. The top command on Linux displays a real-time, dynamic view of running processes including CPU usage, memory consumption, process IDs, and more, updated continuously. It is the standard Linux utility for monitoring current processor activity. ls lists directory contents, procmon is a Windows Sysinternals tool (not a Linux command), and taskmgr is the Windows Task Manager GUI application - neither of the latter two exist as native Linux commands.
