What is Linux Kernel?

The kernel is the core part of an Operating System, responsible for managing hardware and allocate resources like memory and CPU time to running processes.

(That's the shortest answer I could come up with.)

Wikipedia is always a good place to look.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_kernel
That will give you all the information you could possibly want. ;)
