Correct option is C
- Fetches instructions from memory.
- Decodes and interprets instructions.
- Directs the Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) and registers to perform tasks.
- Controls input and output devices to ensure smooth data transfer.
- Regulates the flow of data within the CPU and between system components.
The CPU consists of three main components:
- Control Unit (CU): Manages and coordinates all functions.
- Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU): Performs mathematical and logical operations.
- Memory Unit: Stores data and instructions temporarily for quick access.
- Motherboard: The main circuit board that connects and holds all essential computer components, including the CPU, RAM, and storage.
- Keyboard: An input device used to enter data into the computer.
- Mouse: Another input device that allows users to interact with the computer by pointing and clicking .
