    Correct Answer
    A. Interrupt Request
    Explanation
    IRQ stands for Interrupt Request. An interrupt is a signal sent to the processor by a hardware device, software, or an external event, indicating that it requires immediate attention. The interrupt request (IRQ) is a mechanism used by the hardware devices to request the processor's attention. When an IRQ is received, the processor suspends its current task and handles the interrupt, allowing the device to communicate with the processor. Therefore, the correct answer is Interrupt Request.

    Correct Answer
    A. Monitor
    Explanation
    A cathode ray tube (CRT) is a type of display device that was commonly used in older monitors. It works by emitting a beam of electrons (cathode rays) that are directed towards a phosphorescent screen, creating images on the screen. Therefore, the correct answer is Monitor, as CRTs are primarily found in monitors rather than keyboards, motherboards, or mice.

It is a volatile memory, meaning that its contents are lost when the computer is turned off or restarted. RAM plays a crucial role in the overall performance of a computer, as it allows for quick access to data and instructions that are needed by the CPU. Therefore, RAM is directly related to memory in the context of computer systems.

Low-level languages, such as assembly language or machine code, are closer to the hardware and require a deeper understanding of computer architecture.
