I think the correct answer is A) Kernel Mode because that's where system calls are handled at the system level.

If this question isn't about Kernel Mode, I'm calling shenanigans. That's like asking a fish to breathe air, am I right?

Kernel Mode, duh! Unless, of course, you're looking to take the 'scenic route' and go with the 'Slow Path' or 'Medium Path'. But where's the fun in that?

Hmm, Kernel Mode seems like the logical choice here. I mean, who wants to do system calls from User Mode? That's just asking for trouble.
