B Correct answer
Explanation

Bootstrap and bootloader are NOT the same thing and are NOT at the same location. The bootstrap is the initial firmware code (in ROM/EEPROM) that starts the boot process, while the bootloader (like GRUB or Windows Boot Manager) is software on disk that loads the OS. They reside in different memory locations and serve different stages of the boot process.
