C Correct answer
Explanation

Real-time systems are characterized by their requirement to process data and respond within strict time constraints, reading and acting on actual time measurements. Unlike batch systems (which process jobs in groups), time-sharing systems (which slice CPU time among users), or quick response systems (which prioritize fast replies), real-time systems are defined by their temporal determinism.
