    The central processing unit (CPU) is the center of the personal computer (PC) and controls all functions and operations. The system clock measures and indicates the current time in hours, minutes and seconds and can also time the duration of events or activate signals. When a program is run, it is copied from storage like a hard drive to random access memory (RAM) where the processor can then retrieve and execute instructions in small batches determined by the bus width, which refers to how many bits or bytes can be sent over the computer bus at once.

    1. What is the center of the Pc and write what is the function of this?

    A computer center represents an entity within the organization, whose objective is to satisfy the
    information needs of the company, in a truthful and timely manner. Its primary function is to
    support administrative work to make it safer, more fluid, and thus simplify it.

    2. What's the system clock do?

    An instrument capable of measuring, maintaining and indicating time in conventional units (hours,
    minutes or seconds) is called a clock. Fundamentally, it allows knowing the current time, although
    it can have other functions, such as measuring the duration of an event or activating a signal at a
    certain specific time.

    3. What happens when you run a program?

    is fully copied to RAM. The processor then retrieves a few instructions (depending on the size of
    the bus) at a time, puts them in records and executes them.

    4. How much data can be transmitted by the bus width?

    If a bus is made up of 16 lines, it will be able to send 16 bits at the same time.
