Explanation

Common Language Runtime (CLR) is installed as part of the .NET Framework that would run the executables. Common language runtime (CLR) is a core component of Microsoft's .NET initiative. It is Microsoft's implementation of the Common Language Infrastructure standard, which defines an execution environment for program code. In the CLR, code is expressed in a form of bytecode called the Common Intermediate Language. Answer: A is incorrect. A runtime host manages the execution of application code and provides various services to the application. The Common Language Runtime (CLR) has been designed by Microsoft to support different types of applications such as Windows applications, Web applications, Mobile applications, etc. Each of these applications requires a runtime host to start its application. The .NET Framework provides different types of runtime hosts for different types of applications. Following are examples of some runtime hosts: - Shell Executables - Microsoft Internet Explorer Answer: B and C are incorrect. Both Visual Studio and the API are application development tools.
