Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. Cache

  • "Cache memory" is sometimes used to increase the speed of processing by making current programs and data available to the CPU at a rapid rate.
  • Cache memory is a type of high-speed volatile computer memory that provides high-speed data access to a processor and stores frequently used computer programs, applications, and data.
  • It is designed to speed up data access times by storing copies of frequently accessed data in faster memory locations.
  • This allows the CPU to access this data quickly, reducing the need to fetch data from slower main memory or storage devices.
