The correct response is **systems software**.

Systems software runs in the background and manages the hardware and software resources of a computer, often requiring minimal interaction with the user. In contrast, application software is designed for end-users to perform specific tasks and usually involves more direct interaction. A GUI (Graphical User Interface) is the interface through which users interact with the computer, and input/output devices are hardware components.
