Selected Answer: D

A. Returns processor name (e.g. Intel64 Family 6 Model 158), not the platform. B. Returns a named tuple with system info (like OS, version, node, etc.), more detailed but not just the platform name. C. Returns Python version, e.g. "3.11.5" — unrelated to the platform. D. Returns a string that describes the underlying platform (OS name and version) like Windows-10-10.0.19045-SP0'
