Answer:

- Application software installed by a user provides a user interface for the user to interact with while a kernel application does not.

- The kernel is CLI oriented while a user installed software is GUI oriented.

Step-by-step explanation:

The kernel is the operating system that interacts directly with the hardware components. It does not have a graphical user interface for users but some have a command line interface for skills administrators to work with. Example of kernel applications are device drivers in OS.

User installed applications are used by users of a system for carrying out their daily computational activities. It is based on graphics user interface experience design and run on the OS.
