Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 4 : A Central processing Unit

The correct answer is A Central processing unit.

• Central Processing Unit(CPU)
  • A CPU is also called a central processor, main processor, or just processor, is the electronic circuitry that executing instructions comprising a computer program.
  • The CPU performs basic arithmetic, logic, controlling, and input/output operations specified by the instructions in the program.
  • The fundamental operation of most CPU's regardless of the physical form they take is to execute a sequence of stored instructions called a program. 
• Instructions cycle in CPU
  • All CPU's follows the following steps in order to complete their operations:
    1. Fetch: The first step, involves retrieving instructions from the program memory.
    2. Decode: The instruction that the CPU fetches from the memory determines what the CPU will do, which is decoded by the instructor decoder.
    3. Execute: In this step, all the desired functions are performed as per the instructions decoded.
