What is the primary difference between an emulator and a simulator in mobile testing?

An emulator replicates both hardware and software, while a simulator replicates only the software environment.

An emulator is faster than a simulator because it does not need to replicate hardware.

An emulator runs on a physical device, while a simulator runs on a computer.

An emulator is used for iOS testing, while a simulator is used for Android testing.
