Kernel
A kernel is the heart of almost every operating system. It is always loaded in memory at any time and deals with the hardware to provide an interface for the software. It also manages peripherals, memory, interrupts, and processes. Examples of widely used kernels include Windows NT and Linux.

It also verifies if the command inputs from the user are correct. So, in general, a shell is a user interface to use the services of a computer.
