A2, 3 & 5 only ✓ Correct
B1, 3 & 4 only
C1, 4 & 5 only
D2, 3 & 4 only
Correct answer: (A) 2, 3 & 5 only
Explanation
The true set is that adding RAM improves performance, RAM is volatile, and the CPU is the brain of the machine.
Statement 1 is wrong because the CPU only processes data momentarily and cannot store it for long.
Statement 2 is right since extra RAM lets more programs and data stay ready for quick use.
Statement 3 is right because RAM loses its contents once the power is removed.
Statement 4 is wrong as ROM is read-only storage, not the processing unit.
Statement 5 is right because the CPU directs and carries out all computer operations.
Long-term storage instead belongs to the hard disk or SSD, not the CPU.
