Selected Answer: B
Firmware is the correct answer because a BIOS update addresses vulnerabilities at the firmware level. The BIOS is an essential component of the system's firmware, and updates to it are intended to fix security vulnerabilities, improve compatibility, and enhance overall system stability.
