Which part of the computer is responsible for logical operations?

Correct option is C

The ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit) is the part of the CPU responsible for performing all logical operations like comparisons (AND, OR, NOT) and decision-making tasks. It also handles arithmetic operations, making it a crucial component for data processing within the computer.

Important Key Points:

1. ALU performs both arithmetic and logical operations inside the CPU.
2. It works in coordination with the control unit to process data.
3. Logical decisions made by the ALU influence program flow and outcomes.

Knowledge Booster:

•       RAM – Used for temporary storage of data; it does not perform any operations.

•       Control Unit – Manages and directs operations but does not perform logical tasks itself.

•       Hard Disk – A permanent storage device, not involved in processing operations.
