- ATrue
- BFalse
3What are the three types of systems and their jobs?
- ADedicated System: only used for one specific job.
Embedded System: a dedicated system part of a larger system.
General Purpose: have a large range of possible jobs. - BDedicated System: only used for one or two specific jobs within a larger system.
Embedded System: a secret job hidden within a large system.
General Purpose: have a large range of possible jobs. - CDedicated System: only used for one specific job.
Embedded System: smaller systems with many uses within a larger system.
General Purpose: only used within one specific machine.
- ADedicated System: only used for one specific job.
4[blank_start]Computers[blank_end] have become very important in [blank_start]modern[blank_end] life. They have started to be connected to the [blank_start]Internet of Things[blank_end] [IoT] which allows the previous systems to be controlled via [blank_start]smartphone[blank_end], or device.
- AInternet of Things
- Bphone
- CComputers
- Dmodern
5What does computer architecture deal with? Which is the most typical architecture used in computers?
- AThe way components fit together. Von Neumann Architecture.
- BThe way a computer looks. Von Nermann Architecture.
- CA computers appearance. Von Neumann Architecture.
- DThe process of a computer being built. Varn Nermann Architecture.
6A CPU, also known as a [blank_start]Central Processing Unit[blank_end], is responsible for for the [blank_start]processing[blank_end] carried out by a [blank_start]computer[blank_end].
- ACentral Processing Unit
- BControl Processing Unit
- CCentral Power Unit
- DControl Power Unit
- Eprocessing
- Fmovement
- Garchitecture
- Hcommunication
- Icomputer

- Lmotherboard
7The [blank_start]Northbridge[blank_end] is a fast chip that allows the CPU to communicate with [blank_start]RAM[blank_end] and the graphics card. As graphics takes a lot of processing, there is typically a [blank_start]Graphics Processing Unit[blank_end] [GPU] on the graphics card. They get hot, so they have a [blank_start]heat sink[blank_end] or fan to reduce temperature.
The Northbridge also communicated with the Southbridge. The Southbridge communicates with Input/Output devices, the [blank_start]Basic Input/Output System[blank_end] [BIOS] and storage devices.- ANorthbridge

8RAM is... Select three options:
- AVolatile: loses all of its data when power is lost.
- BPrimary storage: can be directly accessed by the CPU.
- CNon-volatile: will not lose any data when power is lost.
- DConnected to the Northbridge.
- EConnected to the Southbridge.
- FThe same as ROM.
9Secondary storage is devices such as USB sticks, or hard drives. Each use different types of memory.
Hard drives use Magnetism, and USB sticks use Solid State Memory. The other type of memory is Optical and is commonly used on disks.- ATrue
- BFalse
10Label this F___-D____-E_____ cycle
- AFetch
- BFun
- CFrequent
- DDecadence
- EDecode
- FDrive
- GExecute
- HEdexcel
- IEndanger
11The [blank_start]Fetch-Decode-Execeute[blank_end] cycle [also known as the Fetch-Execute cycle] is a process that happens within the CPU. It f[blank_start]etches[blank_end] the next [blank_start]instruction[blank_end], decodes it and then executes it.

12The CPU contains:
- ATwo Level 1s and one Level 2 Cache: a memory similar to RAM. It is faster and more expensive. Level 1 cache only holds a little bit of data, while Level 2 stores more.
- BControl Unit [CU]: it is responsible for coordinating timing and data flow in the processor.
- CArithmetic Logic Unit [ALU]: responsible for arithmetic and logic operations.
- DRegisters: there are many types of registers within the CPU. They're small areas where binary digits are read and written on the CPU.
- ERAM: random access memory
- FROM: read only memory. Holds the code to start up the computer
13Types of registers:
(a) Accumulator: temporary [blank_start]storage[blank_end] for ALU results.
(b) Program Counter: stores memory address of the next function. Adds [blank_start]1[blank_end] to it, after each F-D-C cycle.
(c) Instruction Register: current instruction is stored in [blank_start]binary[blank_end].
(d) Memory Address Register: stores memory address of [blank_start]current[blank_end] instruction.
(e) Memory [blank_start]Data[blank_end] Register: stores data that was read or written to memory.- Astorage

14What are the paths that each type of bus can take?
- ABus: to another county.
Address Bus: one way, requests data from an address in memory.
Data Bus: both directions, both read and written to memory. - BBus: one part of the CPU or computer to another.
Address Bus: one way, requests data from an address in memory.
Data Bus: both directions, both read and written to memory. - CBus: one direction from one part of the CPU or computer to another.
Address Bus: to a chosen address.
Data Bus: both directions, both read and written to memory.
- ABus: to another county.
