The CPU

What is the primary function of the CPU?

• To store data permanently
• To manage network connections
• To provide power to the computer
• To execute instructions and process data.

Which component of the CPU is responsible for executing instructions?

• Control Unit (CU)
• Cache Memory
• Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU)
• Registers

What is the role of the Control Unit (CU) in the CPU?

• To manage input and output operations

• To direct the operation of the processor.

• To store data temporarily

• To perform arithmetic operations

Which part of the CPU is used for temporary data storage during processing?

• All of the above

• Main Memory

• Registers

• Cache Memory

What is the purpose of the Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) in a CPU?

• To control the flow of data

• To perform calculations and logical operations

• To execute instructions from the Control Unit.

• To manage memory access

What is the function of cache memory in a CPU?

• To execute instructions from the Control Unit

• To manage input and output operations

• To speed up data access for the CPU

• To store data permanently

Which component of the CPU is primarily responsible for coordinating the activities of all other components?

• Registers

• Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU)

• Cache Memory

• Control Unit (CU)

What type of operations does the Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) perform?

• Data storage operations

• Only arithmetic operations

• Only logical operations

• Both arithmetic and logical operations

What is the role of registers in a CPU?

• To store data permanently

• To manage input and output operations

• To hold instructions and data temporarily

• To execute arithmetic operations

What is the significance of the clock speed in a CPU?

• It determines the amount of data stored

• It affects the speed at which the CPU executes instructions

• It controls the power consumption of the CPU

• It defines the size of the CPU cache
