Identify the sequence of appropriate words A-D that correctly fills the blanks in the following paragraph:
Radio ________Identification Systems use radio waves to read and capture information stored on a tag, which can be read from several metres away. The _________is made up of a(n) _______to store and process data, and a(n) ________to receive and transmit data.
A. tag
B. frequency
C. antenna
D. microchip
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Correct option is C

Introduction:

This question tests knowledge of the fundamental components and terminology associated with Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems.

Information Booster:

Let's fill in the blanks sequentially:

1. "Radio ________Identification Systems": The full term for these systems is Radio Frequency Identification Systems. Therefore, the first blank is filled by B. frequency.

2. "The _____________ is made up of...": The previous sentence mentions "information stored on a tag". The components listed (microchip, antenna) are parts of this tag. So, the second blank is filled by A. tag.

3. "The tag is made up of a(n) _______to store and process data...": The component within an RFID tag responsible for storing and processing data is the microchip. So, the third blank is filled by D. microchip.

4. "...and a(n) ________to receive and transmit data."The component responsible for receiving and transmitting radio waves (data) in an RFID tag is the antenna. So, the fourth blank is filled by C. antenna.

Combining these, the correct sequence of words is: B (frequency), A (tag), D (microchip), C (antenna).

Additional Knowledge:

• RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is a technology that uses radio waves to identify and track tags attached to objects automatically.

• An RFID system typically consists of a reader (or interrogator) and one or more tags.

• The tag itself is usually composed of two main parts: an integrated circuit (the microchip) for storing and processing information, and an antenna for receiving and transmitting the radio frequency signal.

• RFID tags can be passive (powered by the reader's radio waves) or active (have their power source).
