Can I control updates to Mac OS ?

I do not use some of the apps supplied with Mac OS, amongst them is iMovie and Keynote.

I seem to be finding that these apps are updating and slowing my machine down. Is it possible to delete items like these, that I do not use? Failing that can I control updates so as to not update stuff that I do not use?

If you want to delete eg Keynote: open Launchpad. Move the cursor to the app and click on the Option-key. You'll see a little x.

Click on it and then click on the option Delete
