Solution

The correct option is C CPU

A Central Processing Unit (CPU) is also known as the processor or microprocessor.

It is the brains of any computer system as it sends signals to control the other parts of the computer, almost like how a brain controls a body.

Every single operation that you do with your computer is processed in the CPU.
