    What is the full form of RAM?

    • Read only memory

    • Right only memory

    • Random access memory

    Correct Answer
    A. Random access memory
    Explanation
    RAM stands for Random Access Memory. It is a type of computer memory that allows data to be accessed randomly, meaning any byte of memory can be accessed without touching the preceding bytes. This makes it faster and more efficient compared to other types of memory like read-only memory (ROM) or write-only memory (WOM). RAM is used by the computer's operating system, software applications, and data that is currently being processed or used by the computer.

    Correct Answer
    A. PRIMARY KEY
    Explanation
    The primary key is considered the basic key of a database because it uniquely identifies each record in a table.

The primary key is used to establish relationships between tables and enforce referential integrity.

    A.L.U. PERFORMS ONLY FUNCTIONS.

    • LOGICAL

    • ARITHMATIC

    • ARITHMATIC AND LOGICAL FUNCTIONS

    Correct Answer
    A. ARITHMATIC AND LOGICAL FUNCTIONS
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "ARITHMATIC AND LOGICAL FUNCTIONS". An Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) is a digital circuit that performs arithmetic and logical operations on input data. It is a fundamental component of the central processing unit (CPU) in a computer. The ALU can perform arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, as well as logical operations such as AND, OR, NOT, and XOR. Therefore, the statement "ALU performs only functions" is incorrect, as the ALU performs both arithmetic and logical functions.

    • COMPOSE

    Correct Answer
    A. SEND

    The correct answer is "SEND" because when we want to send an email, we need to press the "SEND" button to initiate the process of sending the email. The "COMPOSE" button is used to start writing a new email, and the "ATTACHMENT" button is used to add attachments to the email. However, to actually send the email, we need to press the "SEND" button.

A byte, on the other hand, is a group of 8 bits, and a gigabyte (GB) is a much larger unit of memory that is equivalent to 1,073,741,824 bytes. Therefore, the correct answer is bit.
