An operating system maintains smaller data structures for a thread than a process, as a thread is usually defined as a light weight process . What is the per thread basis of the operating system?

Does not maintain a separate stack

Maintains only CPU register state.

Does not maintain a virtual memory state

Maintains only scheduling and accounting information

We have a process that has been allocated 3 page frames and initially none of the pages of the process are available in the memory. The following sequence of page references (reference string) is made by the process : 1, 2, 1, 3, 7, 4, 5, 6, 3, 1If Optimal Page Replacement policy is used,_______ page faults will occur for the above reference string.
