malloc() (memory allocation) is the standard function in C for dynamic memory allocation. It returns a void pointer to the allocated memory. The syntax is: ptr = (type*)malloc(size);

Array indexing in C starts from 0. str[0]='H', str[1]='e', str[2]='l', str[3]='l', str[4]='o', str[5]='\0'. Therefore, str[1] is 'e'.

strcmp() is the standard library function used to compare two strings. It returns 0 if strings are equal, negative if first string is less, and positive if first string is greater. It's declared in string.h.

p is a pointer to x, so &x gives the address of x. *p (dereferencing) gives the value stored at that address, which is 5. The output will be 5.

In C, identifiers can only contain alphanumeric characters (a-z, A-Z, 0-9) and underscores (_), and must start with a letter or underscore. The dollar sign (\() is not allowed, making 'my\)var' invalid.

x++ is post-increment (returns 5, then x becomes 6), ++x is pre-increment (x becomes 7, then returns 7). The order of evaluation in printf is implementation-dependent, but typically right to left, giving 5 7.

Structure allocates separate memory for each member (total size = sum of all members). Union shares a single memory location among all members (total size = size of largest member). This is a fundamental difference in memory allocation.

The correct syntax is 'void function(void);' where 'void' in parentheses explicitly states no parameters. Option B is also valid in C (defaults to no parameters), but option A is more explicit and portable across C standards.

typedef creates an alias (synonym) for existing data types. For example, 'typedef int Integer;' creates 'Integer' as an alias for 'int'. This improves code readability and portability. It doesn't create entirely new types, but provides alternative names.

In C, 'string' is not a primitive data type. C uses 'char' arrays to represent strings. The valid primitive data types are int, float, double, char, void, and their variants.
