Solution

The correct option is B CPU
CPU (Central Processing Unit) is regarded as the “brain” of the computer. This is because most of the processing of a computer is performed by CPU. It consists of ALU and CU which performs arithmetic operations like addition, multiplication, subtraction, division and logical comparisons such as equal to, greater than, less than, etc.
