A computer is a device that may be configured to automatically perform series of logical or mathematical processes.

Key Points 

List I

List II

(Computer Term) (Description)

(A)

Arithmetic and Logic unit (ALU)

(II)

  • It is part of a central processing unit. 
  • It performs arithmetic and logic operations such as AND. OR, NOT on the operands in computer instruction words.

(B)

Control Unit (CU)

(I)

  • It provides instructions on how to process commands from the programme for the computer's memory, logic module, and input and output devices.
  • CPUs and GPUs are examples of devices that use control units

(C)

Random Access Memory (RAM)

(IV)

  • The primary memory of a computer is RAM.
  • It stores the operating system (OS), application programmes, and data that are currently in use so that the processor of the device can access them rapidly.

(D)

Read Only Memory (ROM)

(III)

  • It helps to only to read. 
  • The bootstrap" refers to A ROM that stores such instructions that are required to start a computer.
  • It Stores the bootstrap loader and BIOS in the computer. 

 

Therefore, (A) - (II), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (III) is the correct match.
