That’s a whole lot of questions you have and far to many to even begin answering here. Seems like you must have a test coming up or a report to write.

Youu need to search and study the OS layers how they work and what an application does first. Then moce into learning the differences in the operating systems themselves.

This is a pretty good intro and explanation of how it all works and the differences.
