The Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) is the component of the processor that directs and coordinates most of the operations in the computer.
True
False
A computer chip is a small piece of semi-conducing material, usually silicon, on which integrated circuits are etched.
True
False
Read-Only Memory (ROM) refers to memory chips storing temporary data and instructions.
True
False
A backside bus is part of the motherboard and connects the processor to peripherals.
True
False
Clock speed is the amount of time it takes the processor to read data, instructions and information from memory.
True
False
Memory consists of electronic components that store instructions waiting to be executed by the processor, data needed by those instructions, and the results of processing the data.
True
False
Access time is time the processor to read data, instructions and information from memory is measured in nanoseconds.
True
False
A multi-core processor is a single chip with two or more separate processor cores.
True
False
For every instruction, a processor repeats a set of four basic operations, which comprise a machine cycle.
True
