The brain of any computer system is?
- ALU
- Memory
- CPU
- Control Unit
- None of the above
Answer: Option C. CPU
The brain of any computer system is the CPU (Central Processing Unit).
Solution
The brain of any computer system is the CPU. The CPU consists of three components called the Arithmetic Logical Unit, abbreviated as ALU, the register set, and the control unit. So, options A and D cannot be the answer as they are a part of the CPU. Option B also cannot be the answer as memory is only used to store data. It cannot perform any other tasks other than storing and retrieving data.
