    The document contains questions and answers about the fetch-execute cycle used in computers. The fetch-execute cycle fetches instructions from memory one at a time, decodes and executes each one, then fetches the next. The instruction register stores the fetched instruction. The program counter holds the address of the next instruction to fetch. ALU stands for Arithmetic Logic Unit and performs arithmetic operations. The control unit controls the fetch-execute cycle and arithmetic operations inside the CPU.
