CCPU

DStorage device

Correct answer: (B) Bug

Explanation

An error or fault in computer data or programs is called a bug.

A chip is a piece of hardware, not an error.

The CPU is the processing unit, not a mistake in data.

A storage device holds data and is not itself an error.

Removing such faults from a program is known as debugging.

Add-on: the term traces to a real moth found in an early computer.
